Excessive Saliva

Dear Patient,

Saliva can be in excess due to excess production or decreased absorption.
Initially try giving your child sips of water after every 30-60mins to help saliva flow down. Also teach your daughter to collect her saliva using her tongue and swallow. Sometimes kids forget. If you see her trying and struggling its best to discuss this with a child specialist and come up with more techniques and treatments.

Moreover, if you need further help, we recommend checking with a best child specialist in Lahore and seek a piece of in-person advice at https://oladoc.com/pakistan/lahore/child-specialist
