The best way to correct a deviated septum, if treatment is needed, is through surgery. Those with obvious clinical symptoms such as nasal congestion, nosebleed and headache caused by deviated septum can be treated by surgery, and the effect of general conservative treatment is not exact.
1. Medication: For those who cannot undergo surgery in time, short-term application of nasal decongestants, such as hydroxymetazoline hydrochloride drops, ephedrine drops, naphthazoline hydrochloride drops, etc., can be prescribed by the doctor.
2. Surgical treatment: In patients with obvious nasal congestion, repeated rhinorrhea and radiating headache, the examination found that the nasal septum is deviated, considering the close relationship with this, commonly used nasal septum correction and functional rhinoplasty and other treatments to correct the nasal cavity structural abnormality.
If there is still discomfort after correction of nasal septal deviation, further examination should be conducted to clarify the etiology.
