Hello Rebecca. The yellow discharge from your nose could have been due to infection or chronic common cold. It is common knowledge that infection turns the secretions yellow. But a clear yellow discharge may not necessarily mean infection . Long standing cold can lead to thin yellow discharge.
The Mayo Clinic says that nipple discharge refers to fluid that is emitted from the breasts of women who are not breastfeeding. It states that the nipple discharge can be bloody, milky, yellow or green in color. Sometimes, bloody nipple discharge can be a serious sign of an underlying breast disease. Fortunately, the causes of bleeding from the breast can be managed.
