Septoplasty

Septoplasty, also known as nasal septum repair, is a common surgery that is performed to straighten the bone and cartilage that divide the space between the two nostrils (septum). When the septum is crooked, it is known as a deviated septum, this can make it difficult to breathe through the nose and cause respiratory problems such as snoring and even sleep apnea.
This procedure is usually done on an outpatient basis and under general anesthesia, so you will not feel pain. Once the septoplasty has healed, you will probably find it easier to breathe.
