Good evening. Well you have maxillary sinuses which are congested. Meaning there are lot of secretions accumulated in the sinus. You can take a course of antibiotics and do steam inhalation to release the congestion. As for deviated nasal septum it is present since birth. If it is causing you too many problems , surgery is the only way out
