Q: What factors should drive treatment choices within the range of options to address adenomatous colon polyps?
There appears to be a range of discretion in the medical literature about treating a proliferation of precancerous (“adenomatous”) colon polyps – from periodic surveillance colonoscopy with polectomy, to surgery to remove some or all of the colon? What are the factors and considerations a patient and doctor should consider in determining an appropriate course of treatment within this range of options?

A: What kind of medical literature are you reading?
I have no idea what a polectomy is, but there is no reason to remove part of the colon simply because you had polyps..

A: surgery. My husband has them and the doctor told him they have to be cut out.

Q: what is the gynae problem known as polyps and what is the outlook and treatment?
my friend has been told by hospital she has polyps (gynae problems)..she wants to know what these are as she wasn’t told fully

A: A polyp is an abnormal growth of tissue projecting from a mucous membrane. If it is attached to the surface by a narrow elongated stalk it is said to be pedunculated. If no stalk is present it is said to be sessile. Polyps are commonly found in the colon, stomach, nose, sinus(es), urinary bladder and uterus. They may also occur elsewhere in the body where mucous membranes exist like the cervix[1] and small intestine.

A: She can get allergy shots. You can give them to her. See an Allergist.

Q: Non-surgical treatment for Polyps?
I am diagnosed with DNS (Deviated Nasal Septum) in left nostril and Polyps in both nostrils. There is constant nasal block and I have lost sense of smell. To remove the nasal block, I have been using nasal drops like OTRIVIN, NOSEVION, EFCORLIN, etc. for the past 18 years. The problem is worsening. Though I am advised surgery, I am little bit scared of it. Is there a reliable non-surgical treatment for the above problem, in any medical culture- may it be Allopathy, Unani, Ayurveda, Siddha or Homeopathy. I want total cure. And written assurance for the same.

A: Don’t waste further time and keep trying alternative medicines. You have already waited for 18 long years and as you write things are only worsening for you. Every alternative medicine will make tall claims to have a solution to your problems and offer treatment. How would you then determine which system to choose? You will get more confused and probably cause even more damage than what it is now.

As far as written assurance is concerned no one will give you one. Even if some one does, he/she would not be actually serious about the same and find ‘n’ number of excuses after failure.

You need not worry about surgery, since school medicine is very advanced and there are thousands of people who have gone under the scalpel / scissors and have led a very long and healthy life. You will definitely get rid of your problem once for all and with proper medication after surgery you will lead a very normal and hazzle free life.

P.N: In any medical treatment you first need to have faith in that system and only then will the treatment be effective.

Good luck; Be brave !!!

Q: has anyone had polyps in their nose and what treatment !?
hi i think thats what ive got just one but has got big feels like i have a cold all the time ! thanks!

A: Nasal polyps are fleshy outgrowths of the mucous membrane of the nose.
* Nasal polyps are more likely to develop in people who have allergies or asthma.
* Some of the symptoms caused by polyps are nasal obstruction and congestion.
* Doctors usually diagnose nasal polyps based on their characteristic appearance.
* Corticosteroids can shrink or eliminate polyps, but sometimes polyps must be removed surgically.
Removing the polyps with surgery usually makes it easier to breathe through the nose. Over time, however, nasal polyps often return. Reduced or lost sense of smell does not always improve following treatment with medicines or surgery.

Q: My mother is having allergy for years. Now she has nasal polyps and dry cough. What about Chinese treatment?
Please tell me your opinion about Chinese medicine.
Or do you have any other suggestions to get rid of this.
She is 46 years old. I’m scared whether it would cause asthma gradually
Please help me on the basis of your experience

A: One of the non-invasive therapies available for nasal polyps is NSAID therapy. Have your mother take one aspirin a day if she can tolerate them, gradually, the nasal polyps will shrink. Make sure she can take aspirin before undergoing this treatment.

Q: What is likely treatment for colon polyps (adenomatous) condition? ?
I’ve turned 50 y.o. this year, conscientiously had a physical exam (all OK) and routine referral for colonoscopy screening. I have no symptoms of illness, am pretty healthy; but what I expected to be a routine colonoscopy actually found many polyps and prompted Dr. to make a referral for labs. Dr’s report said “The large number and variety of polyps is unusual.” and that “genetic testing is indicated.” Dr. had me back twice more, each time looked around in my colon and removed many polyps. The three colonoscopy procedures during past four months have found about 50 polyps, mostly pre-cancerous “adenomas” – tubular and tubulovillous per pathology reports; but no dysplasia nor carcinoma at present). Most polyps found have been fairly small, a couple 1.0-1.5 cm. Still some small
sessile polyps remain at present. After 3rd colonoscopy Dr. counseled that consideration should be given to genetic testing, “and ultimately colectomy may be needed.” Dr. referred me for “FAPKM” genetic testing, they drew my blood and have sent it off to Mayo Clinic. This “FAPKM” testing seems pretty specialized – they are looking for a specific genetic mutation that might inhibit my colon from suppressing polyps. I have no known family history of colon polyps, no family history of colorectal cancer. Everything I’ve read seems
to indicate that a colon with 50 pre-cancerous polyps is serious,
whether the cause is genetic or “sporadic,” and leaves me with the impression the colectomy option may (eventually?) be more likely needed than not. While I await test results I wonder, can anyone here explain likely range of outcomes for someone with my current condition?

A: There are several familial polyposis syndromes:
Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), due to APC gene mutation- cancer occurs on average by 4th decade.
Attenuated FAP: similar but delayed age onset and fewer polyps
Turcots and Gardner’s syndromes: FAP plus various extraintestinal manifestations.
Peutz-Jegher’s, Juvenile polyposis syndromes, and others less common

Cancer rates can approach 100% in FAP in some series, frequently by age 45. You may have an attenuated version. Basically, if there are too many polyps to perform surveillance colonoscopy successfully, then colectomy is usually recommended.

Q: nasal polyp treatment, what are possible/effective methods?
OK, so I had a sinus infection a few weeks ago, and while checking my x-ray for my sinus infection my dr. noticed something abnormal, and one MRI later I found out that I a unpleasant thing called nasal polyps. I have been referred to a specialist, but of course my app. isn’t for a few weeks, so i was wondering what my possible options are. As for the polyps themselves apparently one of my nostrils (sinus?) is nearly completely blocked (its apparently pretty big), and the other has a “normal” amount considering i have asthma and allergies. So ive heard alot about surgery as a treatment (what exactly would it entail?), but i was wondering if and what other possible alternatives may be open to me, since i’d rather not have to have surgery, such as medication or if i would even be candidate for that. Also just out of curiosity it seems to me that I can always breathe out of one nostril, but not both, and which one i can breathe out of will change from either right to left, so i was also wondering what this would mean in relation to how the polyp would affect me. First time on yahoo answers so forgive me if my question may be to long or confusing, thx.

A: My symptoms are similar to yours. I have elected to do nothing but live with it. It is only a nuisance when there is swelling. If I take it easy and lie down the inflammation goes away. I’m not bothered with sinusitis, nor sinus infections at this time. However, I have suffered from it in the past. Mine is triggered by allergy and stress. For the past two years, I take a daily dose of local honey. No sinus problems, no allergies, no asthma symptoms (which is induced by my allergies and stress). Just my story that I felt compelled to share.

Q: polyps is it dangerous and treatment?

A: josh – It very much depends upon the location and type of polyp. A nasal (nose) polyp, usually in people with allergies, may partly block good breathing and is simply removed. In the large intestine where about half of all people develop different size and different types of polyps, most are benign while some are considered to be suspicious and could, if left alone long enough, grow to start a cancer are also recommended for removal and examination under a microscope following simple ooutpatientremoval by way of a procedure called colonoscopy where a flexible tube with light and mmirrorallow the gastroenterologist MD to view and easily remove. Rarely is a polyp malignant.

Q: Is there a home remedy for urinary bladder polyps?
I was diagnosed with urinary bladder polyps over a year ago and saw them on a monitor during a cystoscopy. The treatment was apparently going to be very involved and would’ve required me to lose time from work. My work wasn’t going to allow it. Now I don’t have health insurance and am trying to find out if there’s a natural remedy/home remedy to get rid of the polyps. I’m tired of wearing pads for the “just in case” sneezes, coughs, and hardy laughs.

A: polyps can be cancerous, so they need to come out sooner or later.

Q: I was doing a self-exam when i noticed a lump on my cervic, i dont know if it is a cervical cysts or polyps?
I know it is not cervical cancer caused by HPV because i have normal pap test from my OBGYN…i was looking online at pictures and website’s but it says no treatment is necessary and they will go away but then why does is instruct me to go get checked out with my doctor…can cervical cysts or polyps led to infertility? also what causes them to come up?

A: It instructs you to see your doctor because no one can feel the difference between an abnormal cancer bump, and a normal cyst bump. There is no reason for these to show up, they just do! Some people think they are clogged mucous glands. They don’t interfere with fertility unless they get huge and in the way, bleed, or evolve into something else.
