10 Deviated Septum Symptoms
Symptom #4: Recurrent Sinus Infections
Recurrent sinus infections or sinusitis can cause issues such as blocked nose, thick nasal mucus, facial pain, headaches, fever, and sore throat. It can be caused by air pollution, infection, allergies, or structural anomalies of the nose.
If the sinus infection lasts more than ten days, it can worsen and progress to become a bacterial infection. Recurrent episodes of sinus infections are commonly seen in those with poor immune function, deviated nasal septum, asthma, and cystic fibrosis.
