What Causes Frequent Watery Yellow Fluid Discharge Form The Nose?
Hi, I have (now and in the past) this bright yellow watery liquid dripping and sometimes pouring from my nose. It is very sticky, but literally is like water and i the color of a highlighter marker. I have had this off and on in the past, but no one can tell me what is the cause. It is always chalked as a sinus infection (which I do know I have), but why is it that I have this thick normal sinus infection discharge most of the time-then with the one now is a a constant drip or drain of this weird yellow water that is sticky and makes my nose smell awful!

Hello,
In my opinion, you should see also an allergist and do a Skin Prick test to inhalant allergens and check if you have Allergic rhinitis too.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
