Hello, Septoplasty is a procedure done for DNS it is safe and gives good symptomatic relief. It is a simple operation in good hands there will be a nasal pack which will be removed next day. You may have some blood stained mucous discharge form nose for 2-3 days. There will be some stuffiness and blockage of nose for a few days for which drops will be given. Some amount of irritation and dryness is common upto 2 months. If you require any external nose correction to give good shape it can be done in same sitting. You can consult a plastic surgeon.
