It is a common conception that clear nasal discharge can be normal due to a cold or allergy but green or discoloured mucus can be a sign of sinus infection. It is not true in all cases. Often, mucus can become discoloured if it is contained in your nasal passage for a long time. That does not necessarily mean that you can have a sinus infection. Similarly, if you blow your nose regularly even you are down with sinus, the mucus from your nose will be clear without any discolouration. Merc Sol is a beneficial homeopathic medicine that treats sinus with discoloured nasal discharge.
