Small swelling inside the nose

2025-03-20 15:45:38
My son aged 2 years is very frequently scratching outside the nose, when observed carefully we saw a small swelling like a polyp inside the right nose. We took him to our paediatrician, he suggested metaspray and told us not to worry about it. But the condition still persists. Is it something to worry about? Shall we visit an ENT for this.
