A.  Recurrences of nasal polypi are certain. Repeated removal is needed and is not harmful. If post operative care, steroids and nasal douche are taken, the recurrences can be reduced. However, 20 percent patients will still have a recurrence.

Plucking of polypi to give adequate airway every six months or a year under local anaesthesia to avoid their growing big helps. Please rest assured that tendency to polyposis is inherited and they grow again from remaining nasal mucosa.
