Hypertrophy of nasal turbinates - what does this mean
Hypertrophy of nasal turbinates is a condition in which the turbinates inside the nose become swollen and enlarged, leading to a decrease in airflow through the nasal passages. this can be caused by allergies, infections, or structural problems in the nose.
What happens during the disease - hypertrophy of nasal turbinates
Hypertrophy of the nasal turbinates is caused by an abnormal increase in the size of the mucous membranes of the turbinates due to an increase in the number of blood vessels located in the area. this can be caused by chronic inflammation of the nasal passages, allergies, or chronic sinus infections, which all cause an increase in blood flow to the area. the enlarged turbinates can block the nasal passages and lead to difficulty breathing, congestion, and other symptoms.
