Hi and thank you so much for this query

I am so sorry to hear about this deviated septum. The surgery would restore the patency of the breathing channels making breathing a lot easier and deeper if you so desire. I will suggest you evaluate after surgery whether you are doing a lot better or there is still need to see a doctor for this.

I hope this addresses your query fully. Thank you so much for patronizing our services and please do feel free to ask for follow up clarifications and information if need be. I wish you the best of health.
