Can it be possible to have a deviated septum if your nose isn't crooked?

Absolutely!: Many people with deviated septums have normal noses on the outside. This can be something someone is born with or trauma.

Deviated septum: A deviated septum can be corrected surgically to bring the septum to the midline. If there are symptoms like nasal obstruction, snoring or recurrent sinusitis, have your nose evaluated by a board certified otolaryngologist.
