Breathing problem
I am having breathing problem from my right nostril since 100 days and i had a ct scan which shows bilateral turbinate hypertrophy.. i am advised by the doctor to use fluticasone furoate for another 3 weeks and he says there is nothing serious after seeing my ct scan film and if the condition dosent improve he said i should go for cauterization of turbinates..
Its been 15 days im using fluticasone and i have used 2 bottles before as well but the condition remains the same..
So shall I wait if there is a chance of spray to work or go for Surgery
