Is drooling at 1.5 years old a disease?

Patient's question:

[Condition Description: The child is 1.5 years old, and there is a lot of drooling. Treatment history and effectiveness: No treatment has been given. What kind of help is desired: How can the drooling be stopped?]

Doctor's answer:

[Condition Analysis: Generally, normal children may occasionally drool, but not excessively; if they frequently drool a lot, it could be due to spleen deficiency or accumulation of heat in the heart and stomach meridians. Children with spleen deficiency may exhibit symptoms such as poor appetite, poor digestion, and poor sleep quality. Accumulation of heat in the heart and stomach may manifest as bad breath, constipation, and night sweats. Additionally, oral diseases are possible, but most oral conditions are acute, such as ulcers.
Advice: It is best to take your child to a local hospital for a doctor to assess their overall condition and provide appropriate adjustments. Chinese medicine is recommended for regulation, which can appropriately nourish the spleen and lungs while clearing heat and resolving accumulation. However, it is essential to determine the specific condition to provide targeted treatment. Western medicine has limited methods for simple drooling issues.]
