One side nose blocks then other side
Some time my left side nose blocks and some time right side nose blocks. Because of this I find it difficult to breath.
When I gone through endoscopy doctor said my nose bone is bent and that might be the reason for breathing issue .
My question is if a person have deviated septum and nose is bent on right then always that side of nose should blocks right ?
But in my case some time left and some time right side ?
So bit confused and wanted to know little more info on this .
If any one explains a bit, really appreciated.

When a person has deviation of nasal septum then
The deviated side gets narrowed and feel blocked
The other side has lot of space in nasal cavity from where lot of air passes, that creates a temporary drying effect and hence a feeling of blockage occurs
