Hi I saw ENT recently under a urgent referral due to a lump up my left nostril. The specialist put a camera through and told me everything around my nose, mouth and throat look severely unhealthy. He told me categorically that it isn't pollyps. He told me that I would be going for a MRI scan and then an operation to do a biopsy but also to remove my tonsils and adnoids and depending on what the MRI says other stuff might come out as well.
I asked him multiple times what it could be and he just said it could be benign and everything is really really unhealthy.
Fast forward the next day I get a call to book my MRI and everything is happening really fast.
My question then would be is there any other lumps that can form in your nostril on your middle nasal bone that can cause this apart from polyps and tumors( symptoms include blocked nose on 1 side)
Also does going for the MRI first indicating he's looking for staging and spread as NHS site for nasal cancer says it would be used after the biopsy. Does this sound very much like cancer
