4. Sinus Infections

Nasal polyps can prevent natural drainage of the sinus cavities. When the sinus cavities cannot drain, there is a risk of infection. Infection happens in the sinus cavity when too much mucus builds up. Small polyps do not impede nasal drainage, but if you have large nasal polyps, your sinus cavities may become blocked. If you have been suffering from sinus infections, you should consult with your primary care provider.
