I had lived my whole life with one side of my nose always blocked, but I thought maybe it was just normal.
I found out I had severe deviated septum and rhinitis when I went to a military hospital during my service, so after discharge I looked into nasal surgery.
I learned that the above symptoms and cosmetic rhinoplasty could be done together at one clinic.
I had not been thinking about cosmetic rhinoplasty, but I changed my mind and had the surgery, and so far I have been doing well without any particular problems.
They used the excised septal cartilage for the nasal tip, and silicone for the nasal bridge.
