Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Zhou Xiaofeng
Children's nasal polyps can be improved through medication or surgical treatment. Under a doctor's guidance, patients can use medications such as triamcinolone acetonide nasal spray appropriately, which can effectively inhibit inflammation, reduce the size of the polyps, and even make them disappear. However, it is important to note that triamcinolone acetonide nasal spray is suitable for children aged 6 years and older. If symptoms are severe, surgical removal of the polyps may be necessary to achieve effective treatment and cure. Additionally, patients should pay attention to their diet in daily life and avoid consuming irritating foods.
