Can a deviated septum with a septal bone spur cause facial pain?

Asked By:windycity80 in Chicago, IL

I am just recovering from a bad sinus infection. Once the infection cleared I have been experiencing facial pain and pressure which eminates my left nostril to my cheek, molars, and lower eye. My ENT examined me and took a CT scan and says I have a deviated septum with a septal bone spur on the side of the pain. He recommends a septoplasty as a cure for the contact point headache symptoms. Just curious if anyone else has seen patients with these types of symptom and the recommendation.
