Do I have a deviated septum? ?

Question

I used to play field hockey as a kid, and remember getting smacked in the face with the ball. Since then I have been the "nosebleed" girl in my family. I get them quite often (~15 times/year), and they are very heavy. My nose is also crooked and curves off to the right. There is some airflow out of the right nostril, but significantly less than the left one. Apparently I snore too. I just want to know if it is woth it for me to go to an ENT to see if I can have this fixed. Thanks!

Answer 1

Yes, it is worth going to an ENT.  My situation was similar except I began having chronic sinus infections.  This is covered by insurance.
