Suggest Treatment For Deviated Nasal Septum

I have a deviated septum in my left nostril and currently experiencing vision/focus problems for approximately two months I have a slight pressure sensation in my left ear also. Are the two connected and can a correction to the deviated septum relieve my symptoms?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of deviated nasal septum which could be due to nasal polyp, respiratory track infection, cold and weak immune system due various disease. Treatment depends on cause. For eviated nasal septum, surgery is advised which is a minor cosmetic procedure need not to worry. If it is due to sinusitis and bacterial infection then doctor can prescribe antibiotics along with antihistamines and decongestants. If mucus is thick you can also use mucolytic agent like ambroxol to make mucus thin. Visit ENT specialist and start treatment as per diagnosis.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
