What symptoms can a deviated septum cause? could my deviated septum be the reason behind my allergies,breathing trouble,congestion and sleep apnea?

Genetics: So long as you haven't broken your nose the most likely cause is genes. i.e. you were born that way. This could be a part of the cause of the symptoms you have however with that list I would see an ENT doctor for a formal evaluation.
