Brief Answer:
Pranayama can be tried
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for posting on HCM.
As a doctor, I dont believe that just exercise can straighten your deviated nasal septum (DNS) as scientifically it seems impossible. But there different school of thoughts propagated by ayurveda and yoga advocates.
According to ancient art of yoga some still believe that breathing exercises like Pranayama can improve the condition of DNS.
It seems unusual to me that some breathing exercise can actually correct surgical deformity.
Hope you got my point here.
Feel free to ask any doubts if have pertaining to the issue.
Take care
