What
is a Deviated Nasal Septum?
When the nasal septum does not align in the middle of
the nose it is called a Deviated Nasal Septum. Almost
everyone naturally has some curvature or crookedness to
their septum. A certain amount of bending is acceptable.
If the septum is too deviated it may cause nasal blockage
or recurrent sinus problems. A common cause of a deviated
nasal septum is from trauma (broken nose) in the past. |
