Suggest Treatment For Headache And Excessive Nasal Mucus

My toddler hit my nose yesterday pretty hard. When I stood up i had a handful of clear watery fluid come out of one nostril. I happened the rest of the day when I would bend over. I got a postural headache. Today I can feel the fluid bit it isn t as much as yesterday. I have a little headache still. Should I wait it out or go to er?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It could be a sinusitis. A short course of antibiotics can be started empirically. Do steam inhalation to open up clogged sinuses. If symptoms persist better to consult an ENT specialist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
