WHAT AYURVEDA SAYS ABOUT NASAL POLYP ?
Ayurveda defines nasal polyps to be closely related to Nasa arsha. This condition arises due to increased Kapha Dosha. Vitiated Kapha Dosha promotes the growth of polyps in the wall of blood vessels as well as in the surrounding muscular tissues to give rise to swelling. Furthermore, this inflammation in the blood vessels is known as Kapha-Rakta granthi. In this condition, the patient may feel a blockage in the nasal canal that reduces the perception of a smell.
