Why are doctors ignoring the fact that a nasal septum can be straightened by snapping it into place using just the thumbs?

 I mean if a nose becomes crooked due to an external force it could also be "uncrooked" the same way, am I wrong? I know I'm not. I've seen it done. It sure can be very painful and it should be done right, but it is certainly possible and a real alternative to surgery.
