What Is The Recovery Period And Cost Of The Surgery For Deviated Nasal Septum?
Are there any medical insurance available for nasal septum deviation surgery ?
Thanks a lot in advance
Thanks for your query.
Nasal septum deviation is treated either by surgeries called Sub-mucous resection or Septoplasty.
Both above surgeries are day care surgeries (need admission only for a day) and average cost surgeries.The cost differs from hospital to hospital depending on the staying expenses but average would be around 10,000rupees including surgeon and hospital charges.
Recovery is within 2 to 3 days and yes it does correct the bad shape of the nose if any.You can get back to work within 3 to 4 days.
I would doubt that any insurance company gives claim on such surgeries as DNS (Deviated nasal septum) is a pre-existing condition and usually appears in very young age.You may have to enquire your insurance office to be sure of that.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Thanks for writing back.
As I said the costs differ from one hospital to another but the costs you mention appear more to me too.
Nangia hospital Model Town ,Gurgaon and Veekay hospitals in DLF city are two amongst low charging hospitals as in my list but I am not sure the exact cost there.You can contact and talk to them on this.
Hope I answered all your questions. Please use any answer clarification before closing and rating this answer. I will be happy to explain or expand on any issue you may have.
