A member asked:
When i bend over i sometimes have a funny smelling, clear, thin fluid pour from my nose upon standing back up. what else could this be besides csf?

Sinus fluid: sometimes, you can remove a blockage of the sinuses with such an maneuver. However, it is also possible that this maneuver changes the blood flow to the lining of the nasal cavity causes increased secretions. I would go with the first one.
