When your nose runs uncontrollably and when you feel heaviness in your face and sinus areas you are experiencing allergies.

Nasal Polyps
Approximately 20% of patients who suffer from chronic sinusitis will also have nasal polyps. It is characterized by inflammation of the nose and sinus cavities as well as the presence of benign growths in the nasal cavities that are thought to originate from the different, distinct sinuses. Nasal polyps can be present within both sides of the nasal cavity. Additionally, a very strong correlation exists between the conditions of asthma, allergy and nasal polyps. As a result, patients suffering from allergies should be examined for chronic sinusitis conditions as well as questions about nasal polyps.
Dr. Spring will quickly and expertly address your concerns so please book an appointment online or call SPRING ENT.
Nasal Congestion
Nasal congestion is more than allergies and sinus problems. Nasal congestion may resolve on its own or with little assistance from medicines. Unfortunately, oftentimes it reflects a more complex, fundamental condition. Dr. Paul Spring will determine the underlying cause of your nasal congestion and develop a treatment plan to relieve your symptoms which may involve well tolerated radiofrequency and cryosurgical intranasal techniques.
