Abstract
Rhinorrhea is a term for abundant mucous (watery) discharge from the nasal cavity, which originated from the Greek word «rhoia» (flow, discharge). Rhinorrhea is usually a symptom of acute diseases. However, less pronounced manifestations can be a sign of various chronic diseases not only of the nasal cavity, but of other organs and systems. In order to identify the causes for rhinorrhea, you may need to take an additional examination and a detailed history of occupational diseases, medications taken, etc. The patients should receive symptomatic treatment while awaiting the laboratory test results and identification of the causes for the disease.
