Patient's question:
Is the baby drooling due to spleen deficiency?Doctor's answer:
Babbling is a normal phenomenon because when babies start eating solid foods, their salivary glands are stimulated by these foods, leading to a significant increase in saliva production. Additionally, babies have small mouths and are not yet able to use swallowing movements to regulate saliva, so it leaks out. Therefore, it is important to frequently wipe away any accidentally leaked saliva to keep the baby's face and neck dry, thereby preventing the occurrence of eczema.
