Runny Nose in Spanish
Hola a todos. Doc Molly here. He estado batallando con la siguiente pregunta:
Do you have a runny nose?
My teachers from Colombia, Mexico, and Guatemala all suggested,
¿Tiene mocos?
Runny Nose vs Boogers
However, Luis de Venezuela said this could also be interpreted as, “Do you have boogers?” 
Multiple Options
En fin, hay varias maneras de hacer la pregunta, “Do you have a runny nose?” Here’s my list of options. Leave a comment below if you have more. Aquí tienen mi lista de opciones.
¿Tiene mocos?
¿Tiene moqueo?
¿Está moqueando?
¿Tiene escurrimiento nasal?
¿Tiene mucha secreción nasal?
¿Tiene goteo nasal?
¿Está goteando su nariz?
¿Tiene la nariz aguada?*
¿Tiene la nariz suelta?*
What people use will vary by country. I think most people should understand the first seven. My teachers from Mexico, Guatemala, and Colombia preferred the first three. Not everyone will understand the last two. It will depend on the country they are from.
