A member asked:

4yo has green mucus in nose (both sides)every morning. its been months & its never clear- theres always mucus. should i be concerned?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: Nasal mucus will always begin to have color if it has been in the nasal passages long enough. By itself it is not a prominent signal for anything. If you pair that with facial pain, fever, headaches & cough it could be a sinus infection. If the kids nose runs constantly with some color it could just be reaction to inhalant allergies or environmental irritants.
