This procedure demonstrates nasal polyp removal as the cause of nasal obstruction. It's not clear that is your problem. You need to see a nasal surgeon who specializes in septal and sinus surgery.

I had a large sinus cyst/polyp removed not too long ago, it was 9mm in size (very large as I was told) and am wondering, is this what the surgeon did to remove it? It was in the right sinus cavity (the one near where my right cheekbone is, anyway). Needless to say after the surgery it took a while to recover but I felt so much better.

Depending where you are located the operation costs about $2400 in Sydney Australia but it was the best thing that I did, 4 days of pain but breathing relief that I am so grateful for, if I had known I would have done the operation years ago.

how much does that cost? and also being that i always am stuffy in the morning.. i always have problems breathing thru my nose.. especially since i had a rhinoplasty done twice.. i feel from, healing for a year and what not i sense maybe i may be wrong but maybe some of the passage ways are blocked slightly. what doctor do i go to and how much is this procedure? also is it safe and how long does it take to heal? i assume you need to take antibiotics and Vitamine C correct?
