The internal structure of your nose can lead to nasal polyps. Mucus collects in the various nasal passages, and inflammation or infection can result. The nasal passages can be affected by an accident or a fall, or even congenital disabilities. Some people have a 'septal deviation' in their nose. The only way to diagnose a septal deviation is with an X-ray from a respiratory specialist. If your nasal passages have any deformities, surgery to correct the deformity is a permanent cure for nasal polyps, rather than repeated surgeries to remove the troublesome growths.
