Nasal septum curvature mostly refers to nasal septum deviation, and mild deviation usually has no obvious symptoms. In severe cases, it can cause nasal dysfunction, leading to nasal congestion, nosebleeds and other conditions. Without timely intervention, it can also lead to sinusitis, respiratory infections, and even affect children’s development.
Common causes of deviated septum include developmental malformations, such as unbalanced nasal development, adenoid facies with high arched hard palate. It can also be secondary to trauma and nasal sinus tumors. Therefore, for patients with deviated septum, they should seek medical attention as soon as possible to clarify the cause before further treatment.
Typical symptoms of deviated septum are nasal congestion, nosebleed, reflex headache, decreased sense of smell and tinnitus, etc., which will seriously affect the patient’s daily work and life, and if not intervened in a timely manner, it may also induce suppurative sinusitis, upper respiratory tract infections, etc. Children with this disease may suffer from prolonged nasal congestion, nasal bleeding, reflex headache, decreased sense of smell and tinnitus.
