A member asked:

My nose has been running constantly on one side only for two weeks. the fluid is clear and thin and sometimes causes a headache. what is this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cad: Could be a CSF cerebrospinal fluid leak. You need an ENT and a ct of the sinuses or and temporal bone if the ENT does not visualize the spot that is leaking . Sometime special dye study is done for leaks.
