Hi,
Thanks for using the HCM. I am happy to address your questions, in acute sinus infection, in addition to nasal congestion, one expects to see discolored mucus (yellow, or occasionally orange), facial pain, facial pressure, and an overall crappy feeling (malaise). This fluid which is orange in color is caused due to the breakage of tiny blood vessel inside your nose which is accompanied by mucus/ plasma diluting the RBC colour. Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help. Thanks
