Is there a non-surgical way to fix a deviated septum?

prombom17
I have a deviated septum and it seems weird that if cartilage is just shifted or bent away from the midline that I have to go under the knife and let my nose get chopped up to fix this. Are you SURE that there is no way to move the septum back to the middle with my fingers or something? I never broke my nose, so my septum is only bent (not broken) out of place. Please give me ANY alternatives- the idea of having my nose cut open and sewed up is extremely unpleasant.
