Yes, you could. The nasal septum is the central partition in the nose made of bone and a rubbery substance (called cartilage) which separates the two nostrils. It is rarely situated absolutely in the middle but in most people it is straight and fairly centrally placed. However, in some people the septum is either bent or deviated in some way. This can be very mild or, in some cases, so bad that one nostril is completely blocked. Since if you have a deviated septum you should get that fixed by a ear, nose, and throat doctor.
