Clear salty liquid dripped from my nose when i bent down, i've had a headache all day.. could this be csf?

Unlikely: CSF leak usually results from trauma to the head, severe enough to fracture the base of the skull. If over the counter pain relief does not work, it would be prudent to see a doctor.
