I was kneed on my nose when I was 12 years old. I’ve always noticed in pictures that my nose was bigger on one side. But just recently it’s been harder to breath from that side.

Answer: Septal deviation Hello and thank you for your question. An intranasal speculum evaluation will be the best way to determine if you have a deviated septum. Your breathing can likely be improved with surgery. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified rhinoplasty surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Deviated Septum It could be likely that you have a deviated septum from the incident you had as a child. However, in order to evaluate and give you an accurate and appropriate diagnosis and evaluation it would be best to have a face to face consultation with a certified ENT.
