Allergies? Head cold? Winter congestion?Kendra Jackson says doctors gave her lots of reasons for her continuously runny nose.
quote:
Jackson says the coughing, sneezing and blowing of her nose started a couple years after a traumatic car accident in 2013. Jackson was hit from behind, and remembers hitting her face hard on the dashboard.
quote:
For years, doctor after doctor suggested the runny nose was from allergies. But Jackson said she knew something else was wrong.
quote:
At Nebraska Medicine, Jackson was diagnosed with a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak. Essentially, doctors told Jackson her brain fluid was leaking through her nose- approximately a half-pint per day.

Dr. Barnes explained that she and her team used some of Jackson's own fatty tissue to plug up the leak source- a very small hole between her skull and nostrils.

This was literally an episode of Grey’s Anatomy. I always have “is this brain fluid?” in the back of my mind whenever I have a cold.
