When checking with fingers it makes little string. Also, if the liquid dries in nose it makes white residue. No history of fall. But baby is having hypertonia issue for which doing physiotherapy. Mri eeg all ok. Can this be csf leak? Does csf leak makes white residue when dried?

No csf won't cause white residue on drying and it does not form a string also. This is mucus from nose. Baby is having rhinitis
CSF is clear fluid.
