question: I had an (untreated by antibiotics) sinus infection that seems to be going away, but still have non opaque, slight yellow tint, watery mucus coming from my right side sinus. It is slightly sticky and is coming out when I lean forward. It doesn't look like a normal runny nose due to the slight color and sticky feel. I started detecting the yellow color getting a little darker throughout the day today. Is this normal? Seems strange so I want to inquire about this fluid as it doesn't seem like the normal runny nose mucus. Any cause for concern? (Some background: I started getting sick Monday 6/19, peaked on Fri 6/23, and felt much better today, but concerned about the fluid I am seeing. I flushed the sinuses with Neil Med flush once on Saturday. The rest of the time, I used just a saline rinse to flush the sinuses, Vicks Vaporub on neck and chest, and lots of OJ and water. I also used Afrin metered dose spray on Thursday and Friday in an attempt to open up the blocked passages. The mucus was mostly thick, opaque light yellow (slight green the morning of Friday 6/23, but returned to yellow, with little sign of blood).)
