Your mucus reveals a lot about your health. Different colors and consistencies can indicate various conditions, from allergies to infections. Here’s what to watch for:

1. **Clear and Runny**: Often a sign of good health, but may indicate allergies if accompanied by sneezing and itchy eyes.

2. **Clear and Thick**: Could suggest chronic allergies, causing nasal swelling and discomfort.

3. **White Mucus**: Often a mild cold. Stay hydrated and rest.

4. **Yellow Mucus**: Indicates your body is fighting an infection. Rest and drink fluids.

5. **Green Mucus**: Sign of active infection. If persistent or severe, it could indicate a bacterial infection requiring medical attention.

6. **Pink/Red Mucus**: Blood in mucus, usually from blowing your nose too hard. If heavy or persistent, seek medical advice.

7. **Brown Mucus**: Old blood or dirt. A saline rinse can help, but see a doctor if it persists.

8. **Almost Black Mucus**: A rare but serious sign of a fungal infection, especially in non-smokers or those not exposed to pollution.

9. **Sticky, Stinky, Discolored Mucus**: Likely chronic sinusitis, which may require advanced treatments.

Pay attention to accompanying symptoms like fever or pain. If mucus changes last over a week or worsen, consult a doctor. Your mucus can provide early clues about your health!
