How To Get Cured From The Polyp In The Nose?

Hi , I just realized I am addicted to Otrivin (for the last 18 months using it twice a day) plus CT scan showed polyp in my nose. I can hardly breathe as probably my nasal nembranes are also enlarged. How can I help myself while waiting for my visit to see the specialist ? Thanks for any answer.
