You might be suffering from chronic rhinosinusitis which is a common type chronic nose and sinus disease. Usually symptoms include repeated nose block, facial heaviness, nasal discharge etc. Septoplasty is not the treatment for chronic rhinosinusitis. You need to take a CT scan of paranasal sinuses and undergo diagnostic nasal endoscopy to confirm the diagnosis. If diagnosis is confirmed appropriate treatment can be planned
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
