Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but more than likely your head gasket is bad. Unless someone has been putting antifreeze in your oil, it's about the only way for them to mix on your Honda.

do not RUN THE ENGINE. Drain the oil pan thoroughly. replace the oil and clear out. Any residual antifreeze ought to burn off whilst the oil heats up. in case you already started the engine, it is fairly helpful to take it to a keep and have them professionally flush the gadget. Antifreeze is oily yet not oily sufficient for engine bearings. Bearing harm could desire to result if the engine is run too long with antifreeze in the oil gadget.

As others have stated, looking at a cracked head, block, or head gasket. Gasket crack, might be a little cheaper for fixing in regards of parts, but requires roughly same amount of labor as involves partial or full rebuild of motor. (ie major labor costs). If your happy with the car, keep it, get it fixed. Unfortunately, you have to pay to play.

Typically, this means you have a blown head gasket. Worse case senario, (if aluminum head) the head is warped or cracked. If the temp went to the red once, warped head. If went a secoond time or a prolonged 1st time, cracked head.

Bad news. Cracked cylinder head or block, or maybe just a leaking head gasket.
