    Your child has an infection possibly a sinus infection. Sorry, but the gp is not paying attention properly to your child. If the discharge is yellow and smells - it's an infection. Seek another dr as this one obviously missed the class on yellow and smells equals infection class or slept though it.

    Yellow or white discharge is okay apparently, but any other colour and smelly discharge is a sign of trouble. Your doctor needs to go look it up because I would be concerned about the smelly part too.
