Symptoms And Warning Signs Of Nasal Polyps

Runny Nose

It’s already clear at this point: extra mucus is behind a few nasal polyp symptoms. Postnasal drip means it’s flowing down the back of the throat. But it’s also possible for a runny nose to take over! If the polyps only block parts of the nose, mucus can run out of the nose. It’s often thicker than normal and far, far more noticeable! Why is this?

Well, sinus infections have struck again. A runny nose, sinus infection, and nasal polyps often appear together. It’s very, very unlikely for a runny nose to be a sign of nasal polyps without the infection. But take note again: a runny nose must last for a long time for nasal polyps to be at play. 3 weeks is the benchmark!
