Dripping In Nose While Bending Head Down. History Of Smoking And Working In Atmosphere Filled With Smoke. No Cold. Advice

My mom just told me that last night she bent over to grab something and her nose dripped. She said its never happened before but I said yes sometimes it happens to me. Only when I bend my head down. Very rarely. Were both smokers. I work at a casino which is filled with smoke and I notice it happens a lot there. Were not sick with s cold.
