You seem to be suffering from deviated nasal septum with chronic rhinosinusitis. Confirmation of diagnosis of rhinosinusitis can be done by CT SCAN and diagnostic nasal endoscopy. Deviated nasal septum needs to be treated by surgery known as septoplasty and at the same time chronic rhinosinusitis can be treated by surgery known as FESS.
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
