Initial symptoms of turbinate hypertrophy
The initial symptoms of turbinate hypertrophy are quite numerous, the most common being nasal congestion and a runny nose. There may also be headaches, dizziness, decreased sense of smell, and snoring during sleep. The specific symptoms can vary greatly between individuals. After the onset of symptoms, it is necessary to visit an otolaryngology (ENT) specialist. Tests such as nasal endoscopy and sinus CT scans can help assess the severity of the condition. Most patients may consider conservative medical treatment, commonly using nasal spray medications and oral medications. However, a small number of patients may not respond well to conservative drug treatments and might need to consider surgical treatment, which requires regular follow-ups to monitor the effectiveness of the surgery. (Please follow medical advice when using medications.)
