Had a nose injury within the last week and have a deviated septum as a result. Would a closed nasal reduction fix a deviated septum? My nasal fracture is undisplaced.

Adhesion between the posterior middle turbinate and the lateral nasal wall can obstruct ventilation and impair mucociliary clearance. If confirmed, endoscopic lysis of the synechia is the standard approach to reopen the space.
Retained material in this region is typically due to poor drainage...
Your tip is slightly widened and you would benefit from a tip plasty. The medial and lateral cruras are pulled closer to the midline to refine the tip. You also have slight concavity of the dorsum. This can be improved at the same time, if desired.

You would benefit from a rhinoplasty and septoplasty. The septum can be straightened and the bony abnormality can be removed as well. You would also benefit from tip refinement and change the nasal columella angle.
