Common Symptoms of Nasal Polyps

Blocked Nose

A persistent blocked or stuffy nose is another typical sign of nasal polyps. It occurs when the polyps grow in size and block the areas between the nasal cavity and sinuses. Depending on how big these growths, the resulting issues can be different. Small polyps would be harmless and do not cause any issues or only insignificant ones, while larger polyps could block the majority of the nasal airway or sinuses. This makes it more difficult to breathe properly. [3]
