I have suffered with chronic rhinitis for many years. Having had several operations over the years for nasal polyp removal.
The only relief I get is after my kenalog injection which gives me wonderful relief for up to two and a half months.
I have never been told by my GP or sinus surgeon a satisfactory time span between injections.
I was hoping someone would be able to help,
ie: what is the advisable gaps between injections.
what are the long lasting side effects to such injections.
I have to say that after nearly 20 years of these injections (twice a year). I seem to be ok.
I was wondering if it would be possible and safe to have three injections a year, giving me welcome relief from swelling, nasal discharge and pain.
