Among the many symptoms of nasopharyngeal cancer, runny nose is a common early symptom of nasopharyngeal cancer, which manifests as blood in the runny nose, or blood in the runny nose when sucked out of the mouth, also known as blood in suction. Runny nose usually occurs in the morning after getting up. When the amount of runny nose and blood is small, patients tend to ignore runny nose and sinusitis, or regard it as hemoptysis.
