What Causes Yellow Nasal Discharge When Suffering From Sinus Infection?

I have a sinus infection and have been sneezing and coughing up clear. My right nostril felt almost clear, so I sneezed. Yellow came out and then it felt a lot less stuffy. But after a few minutes I feel like I have a boogie. When I blow more yellow comes out. Should I be worried?

Hi,
Yes, you should worried. You most probably suffering from the chronic rhinosinusistis. To see the extent of the disease you may go for the CT scan PNS.
I personally suggest you
1. Nasal wash once a day through Netiwash.
2. Proper antibiotic after consulting your doctor.
3. Local and systemic nasal decongestant.

Thanks
