Is surgery necessary for DEVIATED NASAL
Hello, I am diagonized with deviated nasal septum and allergic rhinitis. I am using Montek LC and metatop nasal spray. If i use medicine it will be fine if not I will have sneezing and runny and blocked nose. Is surgery necessary? If my allergic rhinitis gets reduced, should I go for surgery? Please help. Thanks, Shalini.

Allergy will not be reduced with surgery, it needs medical therapy, by surgery only the obstructive symptoms will be relieved.

Surgery is the only solution for a nasal septal deviation.....but your problem is Allergic Airway Disease which is essentially an immune system disorder!

Depends on degree of deviation, gross or minimal. whether associated with other features like nasal blockage and sinusitis.
