Chronic Sinusitis with polyp

2017-12-07 06:40:38
Hello, My dad is suffering from sinus for more than 12 years now. i wanted to check if it is safe for such patients to fly or not. What precautions should be taken while flying. Please note that he has polyp and sometimes it becomes this bad that the flesh can be seen coming out of the nose. Thank you for the help in advance!

Kindly ask him to consult with a good ENT surgeon and get proper assessment done if you are able to see polyps coming out of the nose. He may need CT/MRI and biopsy - but only after thorough assessment by an ent surgeon.
