Specializes in Prosthodontics

Flush the Sinus: That discolored discharge is an indication that you have infection in your sinus. Apart from having professional care, which I recommend, you might flush out the sinus using a weak salt solution, breath it in with the infected side down, blow against a closed nose, and flush out the sinus.
