Nasal passage blockage due to excessive enlargement of the inferior turbinate
Nasal congestion resulting from obstruction of the nasal cavity
Underlying conditions that cause inferior turbinate hypertrophy
Trigger factors such as external infections or allergic rhinitis (developing as either vasomotor or hypertrophic types)
