A member asked:
Sore throat, cough & congested nose. coughing up/blowing out of nose bright yellow mucus. why is it bright yellow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Well...: The colour of infected secretions is highly variable... Bright yellow or brownish, or bloody all can mean the same... No reason other than the type of bacteria or virus and the area infected
