Question 3

What do i do if i woke up with a little bump on side of head and its bloody and i try to pop it and well the lquid that comes out smells like poisn

Question 7

I have a leakage from my nose that has been occurring quite often recently and has occured previously in the past after having a head injury. the leakage has a bad smell and comes from one nostril. i also  heaviness on one side of my head during leak?

Accepted Answer

With this history I would advise you to immediately seek medical attention preferably through an emergency department. Your history of head trauma, leakage of fluid with probable contamination could mean there is injury to the brain.

Question 8

I have a sinus infection that drains pure infection and it drops out of both sides. it's so bad that i can smell it in my nose and it's green and burn?

Go see a doctor soon, preferably an ent, but your family doctor should be ok.  Do not wait.  Sinus infections can produce very severe complications if not appropriately managed.
