  • 10 What treatment options are available for nasal polyps?

    Conventional medicine primarily dictates the use of steroidal nasal sprays/decongestants to treat nasal polyps. The sprays basically reduce the size of the polyps by suppressing the natural immune response of the body.

    Most physicians also prescribe antibiotics and anti-allergic medications to take care of any infection or allergy respectively. A major downside of these treatments is that they give only temporary relief at best, and are absolutely ineffective in preventing recurrence of polyps.

    Homeopathy provides a more wholesome and long-lasting solution to this irritating condition. There are more than 50 well-proved and verified remedies that can effectively:

    • Treat nasal polyps

  • 11 Can I take over-the-counter medicines for common cold to treat nasal polyps?

    No. It is definitely not advisable to take over-the-counter medicines to suppress your symptoms of nasal polyps. They do not address the cause, and only help you temporarily. In the long run, the disease may progress and you might end up struggling with the added side effects of these medicines.
