Dr. Peng Xiaodong
If a nasal tumor is benign, such as a papilloma, it usually does not cause obvious symptoms in the early stages. However, if the tumor blocks the sinus opening, it may lead to symptoms of sinusitis. Nasal hemangiomas may cause blood-tinged nasal discharge or severe nosebleeds early on. In cases of malignant tumors, some patients may experience blood-tinged nasal discharge or nasal obstruction in the early stage, while others might develop symptoms such as double vision or headaches.
