A doctor has provided 1 answer

CSF rhinorrhea: Beta transferrin in nasal fluid is the better marker to detect leakage of CSF into the nose. If it is negative your doctor may need to re-evaluate.Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex. Get HPV vaccine
