I went to some ENT doctors, they said the polip has grown inside my nose. This problem has diagnosed before 6 month and they asked me to go through an operation. What needs to do right now.

Nasal polyposis is a common condition in nose which can lead to loss of sense of smell which is known as anosmia. Polyps are initially treated by oral steroid tablets and nasal steroid drops which many times shrinks the polyp and gets back sense of smell. If medicines fail then surgery might be required
