Runny nose ,clear fluid after dive

[gasman]

Agree it's probably water in your sinuses. If I tip my head forward after dives I can sometimes provoke the same thing, and avoid watery nose incidents later that evening.

Prolly a slow leak with your mask-and because of the horizontal position water is entering the sinus cavities-and when you finish your dive-gravity takes over and it all comes pouring out. Happens to me occasionally.

Might be worth getting your ears checked. When I was younger and sillier, I went swimming with a damaged ear drum and afterwards water came from my nose like a tap. I guess it is like holding an upside down bottle in water. If there is a hole in the top for the air to escape it can fill with water. Otherwise the air keeps the water out. Never had it when diving. I would have thought if you have a mask on and sufficient air in your sinuses from equalizing then it wouldn't happen?
