Question: Why does a person has nasal discharges or drips when she /he cries!?
Answers:
When you cry, your tear ducts produce a saline water, but not all of them drain directly through the outter opening of your eye!.

Your tear ducts also drain into your nasal cavity which is lined with mucous (to prevent germs/dirt/other such bacteria from getting into your respiratory system) as a natural defense!. The mucous lining gets irritated by mixing with the saline water and tries to expel the "unknown intruder", same thing as when you get sick!.

Hence, causing your nose to run :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

your sinuses are connected, there are tear ducts under your eyelids that drain into your nose, which causes the nasal dripWww@Answer-Health@Com
