A member asked:

How do i explain to my daughter what it means to have cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Fluid from nose: This leakage of spinal fluid from your nose usually suggests a defect in the skull at the base of the brain, often in an area called the cribiform plate. It may follow trauma to the head and places the person who has this at risk of developing meningitis.
