What Causes Yellowish Liquid Coming Out Of The Nose?

My wife has started to have a yellowish Water consistency liquid come out of her nose. She has also been feeling very nauseated for the last 12 hours. Over the last couple of months she has been having frequent headaches as well. She said it resembled nothing of mucus as it felt and looked like water with a yellow tinting to it. Is this anything to be worried about?

also My wife found out today she needs surgery for a tooth infection that has spread to the jaw bone. She was given Amoxcillin yesterday as well as oxycodone for pain until she can schedule her surgery. These are the only medications she is currently taking.

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query.Your problem is most likely maxillary sinusitis.It can spread from even tooth infection.In such cases a advise antibiotics like Co-amoxiclav,nasal decongesants and do X ray Paranasal sinus and do puncture and drainage if needed.Causative problems like tooth infections should be treated properly and proper dental and oral hygeine should be taken.I also advise Vitamin C in chewable form.Hope this may help you.
Let me know if you have any further query.
