Can they put my nose back in place without surgery, even if it happened years ago? (Photo)

Asked By:nikos96 in Manchester, TN

my nose has been bent for quite a few years and i was never diagnosed with a break. However upon an assault a week ago, i got an X-ray and they said i have a deviated septum and have booked me in to get it aligned in a few week. but, if they don't know, which i believe and only assume that i broke it years ago, wouldn't it have healed in that position and they wouldn't be able to put it back into place without surgery? Will they have to break my nose completely? Im afraid the bone is too strong
