The underlying reason why most cases of nasal polyps form is persistent irritation to the delicate lining of the sinus passages. However, the cause of the irritation can vary from person to person. For example, some people's nasal polyps are triggered by chronic allergies or sinusitis that won't let the sinuses properly drain. If you would like to read more about this, check out the Mayo Clinic's page on nasal polyps, which covers the symptoms, treatment and typical causes.
In my case, my nasal polyps popped up after a really long bout of sinus congestion that led to an infection. Unfortunately, it was treated early enough, and it persisted for a pretty long time. Since then, I haven't been able to get rid of them and I can only sometimes get temporary relief.
