I've been dealing with a blocked nose for the past two weeks and got a CT scan done. I've attached the report do you think I might need surgery for this? What would you suggest based on the findings?

Without seeing the CT scan, it‚Äôs hard to determine if surgery is required. Often, nasal obstruction can be treated with medication or a procedure, but surgery is considered only if there's a structural issue like a deviated septum.

Question

I've had a retention cyst on my true vocal cord that keeps coming back even after two MLS micro laryngeal surgeries one in Hyderabad in 2006 and another at Kims Trivendrum. The cyst isn't malignant but keeps filling up with a grapefruit-like mass, making it hard to speak properly. What could be the root cause, and is there a permanent solution to stop it from recurring?
