I can see a thick tear-drop-sized fleshy lump in my right nostril that's blocking my nasal passage could this be nasal polyps? It makes breathing difficult sometimes, and I alternate between a runny nose and a blocked nose. I really don't want surgery can you suggest how to cure this polyp naturally? My general physician said recovery might take 36 months or more, and I'm currently using Montek 10 and Flomist spray. Will these medications actually help shrink the polyps? Also, is homeopathy effective for treating nasal polyps?

I'm feeling some discomfort in my ear and chest, which has been going on for the past couple of days. The weird thing is, it only lasts for about 20 or 30 minutes, and then it just goes away like nothing happened. Should I be worried about this, or is it just some random thing that might sort itself out?

Usually there is no relation between those, visit ENT doctor for appropriate treatment.
