When you have water coming out of your nose it means you have what is called rhinorrhea which causes and involves a thin, mostly clear fluid running from the nose.
A runny nose is often called rhinorrhea or rhinitis.
But the terms are different. Rhinorrhea involves a thin, mostly clear fluid running from the nose.
Rhinitis involves irritation and swelling inside the nose.
Rhinorrhea has several possible causes, such as cold and/or dry air, allergies or the common cold.
A related condition is rhinitis.
Rhinitis is the inflammation of your nasal tissues.
There are many possible health conditions that can cause a constant, clear runny nose.
Some of the most common causes include allergies, infections, and nasal polyps. Some other factors that can trigger a constant, clear runny nose include food, medications, and changes in hormones.
There are three distinct rhinitis subgroups that are widely accepted: allergic rhinitis (AR), infectious rhinitis, and non-allergic, non-infectious rhinitis (NAR)
In most cases, runny nose is nothing to worry about, and we generally accept runny nose as a part of life.
However, if one experiences runny nose that looks like a leaky faucet or drip out of only one side, this may represent a potentially more serious type of problem – a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak.
