Poor Ikey! A dripping nose can be a sign of a respiratory infection, allergies, a foreign body (if there is blood in the discharge), a fungal infection (again if there is blood), or even a nasal tumor (but not likely). I would take him into the vet for an exam. The vet can determine what is causing his symptoms, and can prescribe a treatment of them. If he has a respiratory infection, for example, he may benefit from antibiotics.
