What Causes Orange Nasal Discharge?

I have been blowing orange-ish jelly-like mucus from my nose the past couple of days and my head has been feeling strange. I ve also been very tired. Typically when I have a sinus infection, I have typical symptoms like thick yellow-green nasal discharge and sinus pressure. I don t have any sinus pressure. Just feel off. I m a 33 year old female, 150 lbs

ENT Specialist 's  Response
Hello mam,
Your symptoms are suggestive of chronic sinusitis, you have to take a course of antibiotics, nasal decongestants, anti inflammatory drugs after consulting ent specialist, once the symptoms subsides, you might have to take ct scan to know the severity of disease and to plan surgery if required. Take care.
