Please be sure to have a consult with a pediatric ENT surgeon regarding a septoplasty for a 7 year old.

Wait till they get older

It is very uncommon to operate on a 7yo for a deviated septum unless it is VERY deviated and is in an S shape and blocks both sides almost 100%. See a pediatric ENT for advice.
