What Causes Brown Like Water With Little Blood From Nose On Bending?

age 49. 5'7". 142 lbs. I just recovered from a bad cold. Today I noticed that when I bend down, water drips out. It is brown, like water with a bit of blood. I tried it a few times and it is the same. As soon as I bend down my head, the brown water drips. Is this something I should worry? thanks.

Hello

Welcome in H.C.M.

I have gone through your query regarding brown coloured watery discharge from nose during bending forward.

It appears as most likely you are having CSF Rhinorrea. This condition really needs special attension and may be easily rule out by doing C.T.Scan of paranasal sinuses.

If above situation is diagnosed by C.T.scan than consultation with ENT / Nurosurgeon will become essential for curative treatment. Rare chances are of allergic rhinitis and this may be manage easily.

Regards.
