Suggest Treatment For Extra Muscle Growth In Nose

Extra muscle growth on my left side nose and also my right side nose also blocked due to the bone bend . I cannot breathe through my nose and cannot sleep during night time. I consulted ENT specialist , they told me to do an operation. What shall I do ? Which is the best one whether we should do an operation or we can continue with the spray itself for life long. Give me a proper suggestion.

Hi,

First that's not extra muscle which has grown but normal nasal tissue called 'Turbinate' which has enlarged abnormally usually happen in association with bent bone of nose, which you have.
For bent bone or better term Deviated nasal septum the only way out is surgery, and both your bone and tissue can be taken care at the same time.
Spray can not affect bone.
