Nasal septum deviation is a relatively common ENT disorder. It is not recommended to treat it with acupuncture, as it is difficult to correct the deviated septum through acupuncture. If the deviation of the nasal septum is mild and there are no related clinical symptoms, there is no need for treatment. If the nasal septum deviation is severe and accompanied by related clinical manifestations such as nasal congestion, headache, and nasal bleeding, it may be necessary to consider performing a nasal endoscopy for septum deviation correction surgery. Generally speaking, the surgical outcome is quite good, but it still requires regular postoperative follow-up to observe the recovery.
