Nasal polyps and spur
I was having sever right fascial pain and nasal anterior bleeding dripping into throat. I had endoscopy and CT scan for that, which categorically mentions that I've a nasal spur and 7.5x5.5mm polyp. CT scan categorically mentions that it's a polyp with no bone destruction, then is there a need to go for biopsy to determine its benign only, not malignant?
