Please explain Septoplasty?
A. A Septoplasty is a surgical procedure on the midline partition of the nose. This is usually done to improve nasal breathing but may also be necessary to straighten the external appearance of the nose. A deviated septum is a common condition where the midline partition of the nose is obstructing the breathing passage. This may alone be the problem affecting nasal function or may be one of number of conditions that can cause nasal congestion.
