What Causes Orange Drainage From The Nose?
I have orange drainage from nose, one side only. Never had that before. Had runny nose for couple of days that suddenly stopped and two days later orange drainage started to come down from nose. No pain or temp. I feel like my head is stuufed, I can not hear well.
