Hi...firstly what was the indication for getting CT brain done?
DNS means deviated nasal septum!!( Septum is a mechanical barrier between the two nasal cavities)
Common cause for this congenital (by birth) and trauma..
If the patient doesn't have any symtoms of nasal obstruction, recurrent URTI or sinusitis...then you can leave it as is...
But if he has symtoms... management (measures) change with severity of the problem
Next Steps
online consultation
