Does turbinate hypertrophy have to have an operation?
Traditional methods of treating lower turbinate hypertrophy, such as freezing, laser, microwave and partial inferior turbinectomy, have destroyed normal nasal mucosa.

turbinate hypertrophy

Structure, affect the physiological function of nasal cavity. With the gradual recognition and attention to the physiological function of nasal cavity, inferior turbinate surgery should make continuous progress towards the goal of "protecting the function of inferior turbinate and reducing it to the best volume". Other treatments (1) The application of vasoconstrictor nasal drops is limited to mild cases.

(2) Injecting sclerosing agent into submucosa of inferior turbinate, its mechanism is that after injecting sclerosing agent, local chemical inflammatory reaction can occur, scar tissue can be generated, the volume of turbinate can be reduced, and ventilation can be improved.

(3) The submucosal electrocoagulation of inferior turbinate leads to scar contraction.

(4) Cryopreservation: Place a special freezer on the surface of the inferior turbinate, and freeze for 1 ~ 2 minutes each time, so that the diseased mucosa will be necrotic and fall off and regenerate.

(5) For surgical treatment, turbinate hypertrophy can choose Chinese patent medicine as the first choice, and can adopt conservative treatment with compound Tongqiao Zhisanliu, with good effect. If drug treatment fails, surgical treatment and DNR low temperature plasma ablation can be considered. Under the action of low temperature, the lesion of turbinate hypertrophy can be ablated without damaging the normal turbinate mucosa, thus achieving the therapeutic purpose. The principle of plasma cryoablation treatment system is to form a thin plasma layer between the electrode and the tissue, and the ions in the layer are accelerated by the electric field and the energy is transferred to the tissue. At low temperature (40℃ ~ 70℃), the molecular binding bonds between cells are opened, so that the cells in the target tissue are decomposed into carbohydrates and oxides, and the diseased tissue is liquefied and ablated. This phenomenon is called plasma (non-thermal effect), thus achieving the effect of shrinking the volume of scar tissue.

(6) Appropriate treatment should also be given to chronic systemic diseases or adjacent diseases such as deviated nasal septum or sinusitis.

Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment of turbinate hypertrophy

Traditional Chinese medicine is the main means to treat diseases and health care, and plays an important role in the health and reproduction of the Chinese nation. At present, there are more than12,800 kinds of traditional Chinese medicine resources, and there are about 5,000 kinds of traditional Chinese medicine used in various places, and there are countless prescriptions made of various medicinal materials. For thousands of years, among hundreds of millions of people in Wan Li, countless people have tasted and experienced these drugs, observed and used them. Their practical foundation, historical background and accumulated medication experience are all worth cherishing and exploring.

Turbinate hypertrophy's operation

Turbinate hypertrophy refers to chronic inflammation of turbinate, which leads to edema of turbinate mucosa and nasal congestion. Turbinate hypertrophy's treatment methods include surgery, microwave, radio frequency technology and low temperature plasma ablation technology. Low temperature plasma ablation technology is an advanced technology developed in recent years. The treatment process of this technique only takes 10 ~ 20 minutes, and the operation is simple without hospitalization. But no matter what kind of treatment depends on the patient's specific situation, in daily life, we should pay attention to keep warm and try to reduce colds, because long-term colds can lead to chronic rhinitis, and turbinate hypertrophy is often caused by chronic rhinitis.

Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment in turbinate hypertrophy

Deficiency of lung and spleen qi

Manifestations: swelling of nasal mucosa and turbinate, light or reddish in color, alternating nasal congestion, sometimes light and sometimes heavy, runny nose, aggravated by cold, and slight swelling of head. For patients with lung qi deficiency, cough with thin phlegm, shortness of breath, red tongue, thin and white fur and slow pulse can be seen. People with spleen-qi deficiency can also see poor appetite, loose stool, fatigue and weakness, and pale tongue.

Chinese patent medicine:

(1) Blow your nose with nasal cloud or fishbone powder 3-4 times a day.

② Goose does not eat grass (95%) and camphor (5%), which are evenly ground, bottled and sealed, wrapped in thin silk when used, and heated before scalding.

(3) nasal drops with nasal pain ointment or nasal drops, 2 ~ 3 times a day.

Diet therapy:

① 6 grams of Flos Magnoliae, 9 grams of Folium Perillae, and appropriate amount of ginger and onion. Take it in water, daily 1 dose, divided into 3 ~ 5 doses.

② 9 grams of mulberry leaves, 6 grams of chrysanthemum, 9 grams of sweet almonds and 60 grams of japonica rice. Decoct the first two medicines to remove residues, add sweet almond and japonica rice to cook porridge, daily 1 dose, and take 8 ~1dose continuously.
