Hello,

Chronic or recurring sinus infections, asthma. Allergic rhinitis (hay fever), cystic fibrosis, Churg-Strauss syndrome, sensitivity to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as Ibuprofen or Aspirin may cause recurrent nasal polyps.

Use water vapour inhalation and salt water gargling thrice a day for five days. Avoid intake of cool drinks and freeze water avoid alcohol intake. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
