If it is thick and yellow, then it is probably a sinus infection. But since it’s coming out in drops, I would like to examine before making a diagnosis.
In the meantime you can start on antibiotics and steam inhalation.
Next Steps
Antibiotics and steam inhalation, preferably after consulting ENT practitioner in clinic
