Pediatric health?

My grandson had tonsils & adenoids removed about two months ago. He healed okay except that whenever he sneezes, large gobs of mucous (snot) comes out of one nostril. On follow-up visit, dr. said to watch it for four weeks, then he'd like to see him again. The only thing he did was to shine that little light in his nose and charge $95!

Anyone have any definitive answers on this topic?

Sounds like he may have allergies.

Like the doctor said give it 4 weeks or take him for second option.

just give it 4 weeks hun, i know its a pain in the butt but you've gotta give it time. it is possible that he could have a mild sinus infection and may be hard to tell right now due to the surgery.
