Learn more about nasal polyps and treatment options during our webinar, “Making Your Voice Heard: Could Your Nasal Polyps Benefit from a Biologic Medicine?” now available on demand.
If you have nasal polyps, called chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP), you may have severe nose blockages and congestion, runny nose, loss of smell, or poor sleep. These symptoms can impact your quality of life. Traditional treatments such as nasal irrigation and nasal steroids often don’t work, but there is another treatment option.
