I had a brain MRI for something else and it showed a large cluster of polyps in my left maxillary sinus. From the front (coronal) view it fills all the way to the top and from the axial view I can see that over half of the sinus is filled with circular masses (at least 5).

My doctor says it's just allergies and would not refer me to an ENT.

When are these considered a problem? And is it safe to ignore them?

I do get sinus infections every year and I have seasonal allergies.
