Sunburned, Orangey/yellow Crust On Nose, Sticky Liquid Oozing Out Of One Side Of Nose

Hi, yesterday I got sunburned, I don t know whether that s relevant or not. But this morning I woke up with an orangey/yellow crust on my nose . I wiped it off obviously, and since then like a clear, sticky liquid has been oozing out of one side of my nose, almost constantly. Anything you can recommend to stop it, or what I should do? Many thanks.

Hi,

Welcome to Healthcaremagic.

The sunburn would not be related to the problem you have in the nose.

Such yellowish crusts can be seen normally and most of due to allergies.

Do take steam inhalation which will sooth the mucous inside and prevent such crusts.

Steam inhalation with Eucalyptus is better option.

Wish you good health.
