Brief Answer:
you need to get clinically examined and investigated thoroughly ..

Detailed Answer:
Hello xxxx, Welcome to HCM,
I've gone through your query and understand your concern,

First of all, please try to understand that every human being is differently built, and everyone's body metabolism, immunity is different, so, what is being tolerated by others may not be suitable for you and vice-versa..

Yes, as you've rightly pointed out, the deviated nasal septum can be a triggering factor behind this and there may be an element of underlying allergic sinusitis which is making you more prone to cold foods/beverages..

It'll be better to get yourself clinically examined once by any ENT specialist to look in to it in details, which'll also help to locate the type, severity of the deviation of the nasal septum along with an X-ray of the para nasal sinuses, management will be depending on the findings..if there's any allergic component responsible, it'll be needing further investigations (a comprehensive allergic panel testing) to detect the allergens responsible..

Meanwhile, stay away from cold foods/beverages, avoid dairy products at night..

Start taking steam inhalation twice daily for next 3-4 days and observe how you stay in the due course..

Do let me know if there's any further queries..

Take Care
Kind Regards


surgical corrective options are there, but only after proper assessment..

Detailed Answer:
Hello xxxx,

At first you need to get yourself thoroughly examined by the ENT specialist and based on the clinical findings, type of deviation, severity, gradation etc. further planning can be made..

There are multiple surgical options are there (mostly endoscopically), so based on the findings, if you fall under the category for corrective measures, the ENT specialist will let you know, even if you don't fall under the category, you can simply express your wish to the specialist, and he/she will take it from there, don't worry, it's nothing major..

Take Care
Kind Regards
