I'm having trouble smelling anything right now and it's really worrying me. Do you have any medicine recommendations that could help me get my sense of smell back?

View allMy 5-year-old just had adenoid surgery and I'm a bit confused do adenoids grow back after removal? I've heard mixed things about whether this is a permanent fix or if they might return over time. Also, how effective is this surgery in the short term versus long term for kids? Really want to understand if this will fully solve their breathing issues or if we might face the same problems again later
It's also possible for your child's adenoids to grow back. It's impossible to remove all traces of the tissue since the adenoids are so far back in your child's nasal passage. If the tissue continues to cause problems, your child may need surgery twice. This is extremely rare.

I can clearly see and feel a yellow polyp-like substance when I look in the mirror or insert my finger into my nostril. A doctor mentioned polyps back in 2018 and said I might need surgery, but I never got it done. Now I can't exhale properly through that nostril, and when I try to inhale forcefully, it feels like something is vibrating near the area. Is surgery the only option for polyps, or can medication help shrink them?
Surgery is advised to the patient,also ent opinion is advised and the surgery is called polypectomy.
