Can you break your nose without it hurting? I had nose trauma and I've had a deviated septum ever since. Can this be fixed?

I've had some trauma to my nose. It never hurt. Never bled. The trauma was when I was 16, so my nose was fully grown. My nose did not change shape. however immediately afterwards ive noticed trouble breathing thru my right nostril. its been a year. will this EVER go away or do i need surgery? and how did my septum get deviated without it hurting? is this easy to fix?
