Sinus drainage

What could be the reason for a "bubbly" drainage from sinuses and also saliva being "bubbly"? Is it an infection, vitamin deficiency or some other explanation?

The "bubbly" nature of the drainage does not really mean much. If it is discolored or if has a foul odor, then infection is a common cause. The "bubbly" nature of the saliva has no specific negative association to it.
