I Was Suffering Cold And Cough , It Is Almost
Question: I was suffering cold and cough, it is almost 2weeks now. But feeling better now. Only cough is there in nose. I did some pressure to bring out all cough. My cough is bright yellow. And last few days I have noticed that some time specially in the morning after bath some small amount of bright yellow fluid coming from nose. 2days back it was right nose and today after bath when I turn my head down bright yellow fluid came from left nose. Should I concern for anything.. Googled and little it scared. No headache or other issue...
Brief Answer:
It needs sputum culture and sensitivity
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
This seems like a healing of cough and cold. Sometimes it can heal with a yellow sputum. Though it could be a low grade bacterial infection also. I will suggest that you get a sputum culture and sensitivity done to rule out bacterial infection and upload the report here. For this test you can visit any reputed laboratory and send your sputum for the test.
Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
