Brief Answer:
Biopsy
Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome
I appreciate your concern
Usually polyps are a worrisome sign and are removed to rule out the possibility of a malignancy by doing histopathology to obtain a tissue based diagnosis.
The nodules could be lymphoid tissue or could be a growth. The best way is to get a biopsy done and confirm it on histopathology.
Wishing you best of health
