Nasal polyps

Hi. Just wondered if any of you have experience with nasal polyps. Have a feeling of small lump at back of nasal passage/throat for past two weeks. It seems to move though...sometimes it's on the left sometimes the right and sometimes it's more central. Going to emergency ent tomorrow and am kinda freaked out so any input would be greatly appreciated ☺

My ds has them, a nose spray is normally prescribed first to shrink them, do you suffer from allergies?

Hi nk no I don't have allergies. Not even sure yet if I have polyps. One or two people have suggested that maybe I do. It's just that it seems to move around and can't find any online information to say that this happens with polyps. Going to ent today and am hoping they'll say it's just polyps as I'm quite worried. Thank you for replying😊

Hope all goes well. Do you have a lot of mucus too?

Hi MollyHuaCha. Thank you. Not really no...went to emergency ent today..they just checked my throat and gave me a prescription for ant acids. They said it may be reflux and that they'll see me at their clinic in two weeks and maybe have a look with camera then. So no joy really🤔
