Hi there. Since an accident involving a football that occurred some 18 months ago I have been left with a deviated septum (at least this is what 1 consultant has told me) - and difficulty breathing through my right nostril. I have been recommended a septoplasty but am not sure this is enough as the deviation seems to be in the bridge itself, with the bone fractured. Will a septoplasty include work internally to the bridge and improve my breathing on this basis? Thanks
