What Causes Yellow Liquid To Pass From The Nose?
Hi I am a little concerned as on several occasions today I ve bent over and I thought my nose had started bleeding I got a tissue but instead of blood it was a strange yellow liquid of watery consistency it happens on demand now, i keep bending my head to see if it has stopped but it hasnt I am not unwell never get colds so I am just very curious - the only thing ive done out of the ordinary is visited my friend in hospital a few days ago who had had her lung out but tested positive for MRSA? thank you

check the fluid....do a handkerchief test.....see for whether the hanky gets stiffened or not if not then it can be CSF leakage......get your CT cisternography done and once the diagnose is established then you can be taken for leak repair
