Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Saliva drooling in children can be seen in various oral, tongue, and throat inflammations. Conditions like tonsillitis can stimulate salivary glands, causing drooling. Once the illness is cured, the drooling will stop. Persistent drooling is often associated with central nervous system diseases, such as congenital brain developmental disorders, post-infectious encephalitis or meningitis. This is due to brain abnormalities that disrupt the function of swallowing saliva. It is recommended to consult a pediatrician for examination to confirm the cause and then proceed with treatment.
