Had Neck CT Scan, Fullness Of Left Nasopharynx With Asymmetry. Sesonal Allergies. What Can It Be?
I am a 25yr old caucasain male and recently had a Ct scan of my neck and because my doctor can t see me for another 2 weeks I decided to pick up the radiologist report from the hospital.. The report states that I have fullness of the left nasopharynx at the level of the fossa of Rosenmuller with significant asymmetry. It also states that an enhancing mass is not idenified.. I am just wondering what could be causing this? I do suffer from seasonal allergies and have been using vicks nasal spray .. Any information about this would be greatly appreciaited. Thanks.

the allergies when not treated long can result in sinusitis
and this causes mass like structure or polyps in sinuses
these can go behind into nasopharynx to result nasopharyngeal polyps
the ongoing allergies medicines containing paracetamol ibuprufen cal vitamina and diet suppliments increases the allergy
vicks also dries up mucus in sinuses
you can consult allergy doctor and he can trat accoprding to allergy guide lines
