What is Turbinate hypertrophy?

Turbinate hypertrophy refers to an excessive growth or enlargement of the bony structures located inside of the nose. These structures are covered with a special skin called mucosa and they help filter, warm, and humidify the air as you breathe. The mucosa naturally swells during the normal nasal cycle, when you lie down and in response to allergens or other irritants. If these turbinates become enlarged, breathing can become more difficult.
