I'm experiencing something strange with my nose. There's this yellow runny liquid coming out, and it kind of looks like urine but it isn't the usual nasal discharge. I've just recently gotten over a cold about 23 days ago, so I'm not sure if it's related. It feels similar to when you have a nosebleed but without any blood. It's been happening for about a day now, just in small drips. I'm really confused and would appreciate some advice on what might be going on. Any thoughts?

You may be experiencing a condition called cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea, where there is a leakage of clear fluid from the nose. This can sometimes be mistaken for urine due to its color and consistency. CSF rhinorrhea can occur after a head injury or surgery, but in some cases, it can also happen spontaneously. In your case, since you mentioned having a cold recently, it is possible that the increased pressure from coughing or sneezing during the cold may have caused a small tear in the tissue surrounding your brain and spinal cord, leading to the leakage of clear fluid. I recommend you see a doctor as soon as possible for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, it is important to avoid blowing your nose forcefully and to keep your head elevated to potentially reduce the leakage.

View allI've been feeling this full pain behind my upper lip and front teeth, and I've noticed that half of my right nasal passage feels congested. But here's the thingI'm not showing any other cold symptoms. My nose isn't runny, there's no drainage, and I'm not coughing or dealing with a sore throat. I feel a little pain starting to go towards my ears, but there's no pain above my middle nose and nothing's going on in that creek area. Any idea what might be going on with me?

I've been noticing a hissing sound in my ears whenever I do the Valsalva maneuver. It's starting to worry me, and I'm not sure if it's normal or if I should be concerned about something more serious. Could it be related to ear pressure, or do you think there's something else going on that I should get checked out?

I'm dealing with this constant itch and pain inside my ear, plus there's this ringing noise that just won't go away. It's been happening for about 23 days now. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?
Throat pain can be quite uncomfortable. Before providing a prescription, consider: - Staying hydrated with warm fluids like tea or broth - Gargling with salt water - Using a humidifier - Avoiding spicy or acidic foods For relief, you can try: - Pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen - Throat lozenges or sprays containing phenol or menthol However, for a personalized prescription and proper diagnosis, I strongly recommend consulting a doctor.
