I am an adult male with a deviated septum and narrow jaws. I am not sure which I had first. In fifth grade I hit my nose on a steel rod on a playground gym. When I feel along the septum wall in the Left Nostril hole, It feels like a car was ramming its side along it. My Narrow Right Nostril gets congested a lot. My Right Jaw is smaller, less developed than my Left Jaw. Would my deviated septum have problems if I do Septoplasty then do Pallet Expansion or vice versa?
Would it be better to wait to have terbinet reduction surgery and the correction of a deviated septum until after jaw surgery (high leforte 1) or would it be OK to have it done before? (Maybe a month or two before jaw surgery)
I was hit in the jaw accidentally while playing basketball. I perceive that there is less air flow but the septum looks straight. Can a blow to the jaw cause the Ethmoid, Sphenoid or concha to shift and shrink the airway? Might I be experiencing internal swelling and thats it?
