Would a septoplasty help alleviate headaches, pressure, and chronic sinusitis?

Harri74
Every winter I suffer with chronic sinusitis and each year it is getting worse. At the moment I experience 2-3 attacks a day, mostly in the evening and through the night which I am sure is related to the electric heating. The pain is so bad it wakes me up each night. I am currently taking steroids as advised by my GP. I have a very deviated septum which makes breathing and talking almost impossible. Will a Septoplasty help reduce the sinusitis, headaches and feeling of constant pressure?
