Patient's question:
The child suddenly developed red growths on both nostrils at night. They have rhinitis, pain, and itching. At the age of 4.5, can surgery be performed to treat this? What should be done?Doctor's answer:
1. The two red meat balls you see are normal structures, and everyone has them. They are called inferior turbinates.2. Common conditions like rhinitis and sinusitis can lead to inferior turbinate hypertrophy, which can be relieved with phenylephrine nasal drops. In addition, during the treatment of rhinitis, besides symptomatic treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. The patient must maintain a light diet and always keep a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary interference in the complete recovery of rhinitis.
