Nasal Polyps - 3 year old?

Hi!

Do these look like nasal polyps? 1st picture is the left nostril, it looks like it’s almost obstructing the nasal passage! 2nd and 3rd pictures are the right nostril.

I know they can be quite rare in children and we are awaiting his appointment with the CF doctor to rule that out due to other concerning ongoing symptoms (respiratory, GI, salty skin etc) and they have a cousin with CF, but I’m just curious as to whether they actually look like polyps or maybe they’re just enlarged turbinates?

Hoping someone that’s familiar with them may be able to share some insight!

TIA
