My nostril and septum feels so tilted on the left side that no air flows through that nostril. Do I have a deviated septum?

The outside of my nose is tilted toward the left as well. I went to a doctor and he made me do X-rays and said everything was normal just my left nostril is abit blocked. He said I have chronic sinusitis but he didn’t do a physical examination he didn’t even look up my nose.he just prescribed me a spray (didn’t help)
