Perfectly normal nose? I have to disagree. Is my entire nose shifted to the right? (Photo)

Asked By:dchri5

I had an ENT appointment today and the doctor said he couldn't see any issues with my nose because he could see straight back and that my septum was "midlined". I feel gaslit. Is the nasal opening supposed to be thin like a coin slot? Is my entire nose not shifted to the right? I can breathe through my nose but it feels restricted. The left side is much more narrow than the right. Did he mean, functionally, he saw nothing that was an emergency?
