Have a bad cold. used neti pot 2 days ago. today i bentover and orange water came pouring out my right nostril. this left over neti pot water? worry?

Not to worry: Excess fluid is to be expected after using a Neti Pot since its purpose is to help fluid and mucus drain out of your nose. Gently blowing your nose after use can help remove any extra fluids. This leftover discharge is likely a sign of your nose clearing. If you have other symptoms - like continued, colored discharge or sinus pressure, pain, or headache, then it makes sense to contact your doctor.
