Do I have a deviated septum? (Photo)

Question

I have gotten hit in the nose multiple times due to cheer and over time I've seen my nose looking more crooked. I've also experienced nose bleeds up to 4 times a week

Based on these photos alone, it does not look like you have a deviated septum, but this is almost always an internal exam finding so we won't be able to tell you from online unless you also show us a scan and/or you have really really bad deviation.

William Portuese, MD · Answer

To make the diagnosis of a deviated septum, requires a thorough internal examination of the nose, which is done only in-person. A full set of facial photographs from all angles are required to make a determination about having a crooked nose.
