Nostril work in turns

Question

Asked for Male, 30 Years

My one of nostrils is always blocked and they work in turns. When I turn and sleep on right side, my left nostril opens up. I don't know about right nostrils working. It's been since I remember may be decades or may be since birth. Kindly help, I don't want any surgery as may be septum is not proper (just a guess). Please advise.
