Hi! i noticed lately that there are some blueish teal coloured streaks in my mucus when i blow my nose or spit (usually in the mornings when i get up?

Breathing in any: Colored dust or paint overspray? If you use a respirator at work, is it functioning properly? It could be something environmental that you breathe in all day and the nose, doing it's job, filters it out of the air. It accumulates in your nose until you blow it the next morning.
