What does really off colored mucus from the nose indicate?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dead white blood cel: You don't mention the color. If it is brown to bloody then it might be irritation or inflammation. If is it more yellow to green then dead white cells from dryness, viral or bacterial infection, or prolonged allergic or nonallergic eosinophilic inflammation.
