General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi and welcome to HCM. DNS (deviated nasal septum) is common among many people. A deviated septum is a condition in which the nasal septum -- the bone and cartilage that divide the nasal cavity of the nose in half -- is significantly off center, or crooked, making breathing difficult. Sometimes symptoms of a deviated septum can be relieved with medications. If medicine alone doesn't offer adequate relief, a surgical procedure called septoplasty may be needed to repair a crooked septum and improve breathing. For time being take tab sinarest 1-0-1, also take steam inhalation three times a day. I think you may require surgery as you have more symptoms. Surgery to repair a deviated septum is usually performed in an outpatient setting under local or general anesthesia and takes about one to one and a half hours, depending on the amount of work being done. You should be able to go home three to four hours after surgery. All the best.
