Patient's question:
Is there a nerve under the tongue connected to the eyes? My son is two and a half years old. When his tongue curls up, the following treatment history and effects: His right eye squints, and there is a lot of saliva under his tongue. Sometimes, it sprays far away like a water gun. What could be the cause! It occurs dozens of times a day. A brain CT was done, and everything was normal. What kind of help do you want: What should I do now?Doctor's answer:
Thank you very much for giving me the opportunity to speak. Based on your simple clinical diagnosis description, the right eye is squinting, and there is a lot of saliva under the tongue. Sometimes it sprays far away, like a water gun. There should be no necessary connection between the two. I suggest you don't worry too much, as there is likely no issue with the brain. It might be due to excessive salivation gland secretion. As the child grows older, it may improve. I recommend you have an examination by an oral surgeon. If necessary, the surgery can be performed when the child is older. Wishing you good health.
