Cutting Edge Treatment for Nasal Polyps

Kadie, 33, has suffered from recurrent breathing problems caused by nasal polyps for the past 14 years. “It’s frustrating not being able to breathe through your nose,” she says. “It’s hard to sleep. It’s hard to exercise. It’s miserable.” Kadie consulted multiple doctors when her symptoms began, all of whom told her she had allergies or sinusitis. She was prescribed various medications for both conditions, but they failed to alleviate her symptoms. After two years of constant congestion, she finally received the proper diagnosis. To demonstrate how the device works, board-certified otolaryngologist Dr. Jivianne Lee removed Kadie’s nasal polyps live in The Doctors’ procedure room.
