Nose is leaking!

13 replies

MotherTruckerHere · 31/12/2018 00:32

Bent over earlier and clear liquid started dripping out of my nose! But alarming. This has never happened before.
I got over a cold a few days ago and am nearly passed the ‘thick yellow snot’ stage(gross, sorry!)
It just happened again when I bent over.
I feel fine. Nose is a bit tingly though.
I don’t really get allergies.
Obviously google told me my brain is going to fall out of my arse... any sane people here want to talk me down??

Sinus infection?

Happens to me sometimes at the end of a cold, nothing to worry about.

Happens to me during a cold, irritating but nothing to worry about.

If you get reflux it’s your body making extra saliva to try and neutralise it and some comes down your nose

Post nasal drip?

MotherTruckerHere · 31/12/2018 00:39

I’ve had sinusitis before. Thinking back, it did start with my nose pudding like a racehorse. Then progressed to toxic-smelling, illuminous gunge coming out for about 6 months. Couldn’t get shut of it even with antibiotics! Really hope it isn’t that again. Although I’d prefer that to a leaky brain!

Pissing, not pudding

Normal

I had this last year and panicked it was brain fluid (damn Dr Google!). I was my sinuses after a cold though I think.

Post nasal drip is when mucus runs down the back of the nose into the throat (and makes you cough or keep clearing your throat).

Thanks everyone. Feeling much more relaxed about this now Smile

You have mucous. You're not dying. Step away from google. Wink
