What Causes Nasal Discharge After Getting A Sunburn On Face?
Hi, I got a pretty good sunburn on my face yesterday. Pretty routine pain, but there appears to be liquid coming off the outside of my nose. The only thing I have done to my skin is taken a shower and put lotion on the sunburn. Any ideas on what the liquid coming off my nose is?

Hello
Thank you for trusting HCM
Overexposure to sun may give rise to burning sensation and sunburn on the external surface of the nose.
It may be due to allergy to Sun screen or may be due to dryness of nasal mucosa due to hot dry climate???
Or it may be due cold or flu. What is the color of discharge???
consult your doctor Ent surgeon he will examine the nose and advice correct treatment to you
