I've been dealing with severe headaches for months, and an ENT doctor diagnosed me with a mucosal polyp growth in my nose, recommending surgery. My sinuses hurt a lot, and sometimes there's discharge. I'm worried should I go for the surgery or are there other treatments? Some relatives say the surgery might cause future issues like more headaches is that possible? Could you advise?
