Patient's question:
A week ago, I just started having clear nasal discharge, then it turned yellow. Between the eyebrows, it feels uncomfortable. The temples hurt. The throat itches. I cough and feel nauseous.Doctor's answer:
This condition is caused by rhinitis, which is primarily an infection of inflammation in the nasal mucosa and submucosal tissues. Common symptoms include nasal congestion, clear nasal discharge, nasal itching, throat discomfort, and coughing. When inflammation occurs inside the nose, leading to a large amount of nasal discharge, it can turn yellow due to infection. This discharge passing through the throat can cause coughing, and in large quantities, it may lead to nosebleeds. General treatment includes oral medications such as Claritin and Chlorpheniramine. For chronic rhinitis, Huo Dan Wan can be taken. It is important to maintain a light diet.
