What Does Green Nasal Discharge Indicate?
I have thick greenish gray nasal discharge. It has a feel like glue or a sticky rubber elasticity. I have had a maxiillo cyst removed about 3 years ago. I have photos of discharge and looks worse than images shown for sinus infection. Do I need to take antibiotics to get this cleared up. Not used to this as I rarely ever get sick and am so busy. Thanks please advise.

Hello,
I can understand your problem. As you have greenish discharge, so I think you have upper respiratory tract infection with sinusitis.
You can take tablet Amox-Clav 625 mg, tablet Okacet cold. Do steam inhalation and gargling with warm water or betadine twice a day, keep yourself warm and maintain proper hygiene.
I will suggest you to follow up with detailed history or consult with physician for detailed examination.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale
