Understanding and Solving the Problem of Hypertrophy
The nasal turbinates, apparently imperceptible structures within the nasal cavity, play a crucial role in the breathing process. Their role in filtering, heating and humidifying the air we breathe through the nose cannot be ignored. However, when the nasal mucosa becomes inflamed, this simple function can become a source of discomfort in the form of nasal congestion.
Hypertrophy of the nasal turbinate often has various causes, and is most often associated with allergies, anatomical features or other inflammatory processes.
Abuse of nasal decongestants, such as OPERIL and the like, can also contribute to this condition. When the nasal turbinate becomes too large or inflamed, it can result in difficulty breathing, through the nose, and general discomfort.
At the Lohuis Filipović Polyclinic, the goal is to improve the function of your nose and sinuses. Our doctors provide you with a complete diagnostic treatment to determine the cause of your problems with your nose and sinuses and find the most effective plan for your treatment.
Examination of the nose and sinuses often includes fiber-endoscopy, a precise procedure that allows the specialist to have a detailed insight into the condition of the nasal conchles. This diagnostic accuracy is crucial for determining the most effective treatment approach.
If allergies contribute to hypertrophy, the approach to treatment may include the use of steroid nasal sprays, antihistamine sprays, or oral antihistamines to reduce swelling of the nasal turbinates.
In case of excessive use of medications, stopping taking it can bring relief. In some more serious cases, when conservative approaches are not sufficient, nasal conchial surgery, known as turbinoplasty, may be recommended to reduce the size of the nasal concha.
The Lohuis Filipović Polyclinic also provides surgery of the nasal turbinate and. This innovative procedure aims to reduce the hypertrophy of the nasal turbinate without significant scarring and a quick recovery.
