What's this orange stuff coming out of my nose???

Just had a couple of drips of bright orange watery fluid from my nostril! Looks like orange juice (I havn't drunk any recently).

I've had a bit of sinusitis and am taking Amoxycillin at the moment to clear it up.

Am I dying or what?

[+5] - Miller - 09/07/2008http://www.steadyhealth.com/Need_help___dark_orange_mucus_coming_out_of_my_nose__t63112_st70.html Sounds like sinusitis, which should be treated with an antibiotic before you have a brain abscess.

@Dorothy Parker,

maybe it is just watery mucus with a little blood in it. I can't think of what else it might be. I hope you feel better soon DP. Take care of you!

@Dorothy Parker,

what isin bloom where you live?
Anything with odd color pollen?

what about dust? Are you in a very dusty room?

Did you sleep under a fan?

@Dorothy Parker,

Hiya.

Not sure what's in bloom at the moment but it's so rainy here I don't think it could be pollen.

It's too bright to be blood. It's the colour of Sunny D!

Not sniffed any coke recently.

Hope it's not brain fluid.

Thanks anyway guys.

@Dorothy Parker,

hey DP

sounds like blood and blocked sinus gunk... red and yellow = orange.

nope girl.... t'aint yer brains - do some steam inhalations and see if you can try and clear the sinuses... antibiotics should kick in soon.

(horrible horrible pain.... hope you feel better quick).

Dorothy - I'd call the doctor that prescribed the antibiotics first thing in the morning and ask about it. Unless it continues in quantity today, in which case I'd be calling today!

Seems several have asked about this on the internet, but I can't find where anyone has answered.

This site is saying some dyes from food or drink could be the cause...

@caribou,

Acute sinus infection
In addition to nasal congestion, expect to see discolored mucus (yellow, green, or occasionally more delightful colors. Brilliant orange, that was my personal favorite), facial pain, facial pressure, and an overall crappy feeling (malaise). Fever is uncommon in adults.

Sounds like blood to me! Get it checked by a doctor.

@Miller,

Many thanks everybody. That was very helpful. Had a couple more drops today but am feeling a bit better.

@Miller,

Miller, Exactly my concern. I remember reading about infections in the nose affecting the brain. That's something I wouldn't fool with on my own without a doctor's diagnosis.

@Dorothy Parker,

Yes you are dying. Nobody gets out of here alive (except Enoch and Elijah)! LOL. I just had the same thing recently, that's why I found your post. I just figure they over spiced the grid with chem trails or cell phone usage has caused a cancerous tumor that has to drain. Don't worry (unless you aren't saved).
