Nasal septum repair
Deviated nasal septum can result in nasal airway obstruction that can cause snorring, sore throat and discomfort in long running. Correction entails septoplasty, which is removal of the obstructing segment of the septum - so called - septoplasty. Very often, nasal obstruction involves also turbinate hypertrophy. This necessitate partial turbinectomy. Otherwise, the airway can still be obstructed.
