General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,

As a physician, I would like to tell you that mucosal thickening and polyps in sinuses are usually seen in chronic sinusitis. It may also be due to infection of the dental root. This can be treated with antihistamines like levocetrizine, decongestants and steam inhalation. Please consult your treating doctor before any medicine is started. Thanks for Trusting & Posting your Query on this forum.

Hope this will help you. Feel free to ask any further question.

Have a nice day.

Regards,
Dr. Abhijeet
