This is assuming post-op spinal surgery, following a lumbar puncture, or severe back,head trauma...

Headache when sitting up that goes away when lying down, obvious leakage of spinal fluid at the surgical/trauma site... In facial/head trauma a runny nose of clear fluid.

Usually goes away after several days of bed rest.
