During the course of an infection, the mucus may change in consistency. Depending on how dried out the fluid is, it may appear yellow, white or green. Although clear drainage is more commonly associated with allergies, it can also be seen in viral or bacterial infections. Occassionally, nasal drainage can be tinged with a small amount of blood, from local irritation. There is no good way to determine the cause of the drainage simply by looking at the color of the liquid.
Also.. check to see if the back of your throat has white dots. If so, you could have strep.
