What is a Deviated Septum?

Your nose is divided into two nostrils by your septum.  If the septum leans into one, or both, nostrils, it is a deviated septum. This is a problem because it can make it hard to breathe through the nose and can aggravate sinus problems, snoring and headaches.  Most of these septal deviations are the result of minor birth trauma, but the continuous growth of the septal cartilage causes this problem to get more severe with time.  These deviations can also result from nasal fractures.

What are the Symptoms of a Deviated Septum?

Common deviated septum symptoms include (but are not limited to) the following:

  • Difficulty breathing through your nose
  • Snoring
  • Bad breath
  • Sinus infections
  • Ear "fullness" or blockage
  • Nosebleeds

If you have any of these symptoms, contact our office to schedule a consultation.

Is There a Deviated Septum Treatment?

If your deviated septum is causing significant symptoms, a simple procedure called septoplasty can be performed in about 10-15 minutes by our experienced sinus surgeons. This used to be a very difficult surgery, however, we usually perform this in the office using intravenous sedation and most patients are back to work within one to two days. We do not use uncomfortable packing or splinting in the nose.

How Does a Septoplasty Work?

A septoplasty is designed to correct the nasal structure issues that are causing your breathing and sinus problems. This minimally invasive procedure allows your surgeon to reposition your septum into proper alignment.
