Hi, I have a deviated septum. I went through Septoplasty thinking that it's the last resort to cure my crooked nose but didn't get the desirable outcome. I don't know what went wrong. The structure of my nose still remains the same and my cartilage or bone still seems to be tilted or deviated towards my right. The attached picture shows a compilation of different angles of my nose: Center, Left Side and Right Side. I need your comments and suggestions on this.
