Hi ,
Symptoms mentioned like nasal discharge , blockage , recurrent infection , headache are nasal problem and could be cause of DNS . Symptoms like tinnitus n vertigo are due to inner ear pathology which may corelate to nasal conditions but rare in your case so you need to examine your ear also to a ENT specialist while you visit for your septoplasty surgery .
Hope it ll help
Thanks n regards
