Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
The CT scan shows that the central bony part of the nose is slightly crooked. There is inflammation and block of secretions in the sinuses and this can cause headache and nose block in most patients. The results of CT scan are to be discussed with an ENT surgeon concerning the need for surgical correction of the deviated nasal septum.
