I have just had the stomach flu 2 days before and now mot of my symptons are gone, but since yesterday my body has been constantly producing bubbly, excessive saliva that feels gross. it goes nonstop through the entire day and if i swallow it makes my stomach feel bloated. im trying to sleep what can i do to stop the excess saliva and will this persist?
Welcome to HCM. It is because of post illness disturbance in digestion pattern. Take light and liquid diet.Avoid spicy and oily food.Drink enough water and other liquids like buttermilk,fruit juices. You can take oral pentoprazole or rebeprazole with donperidone to subside bloating. Enzyme preparation will be helpful to improve your digestion. Keep in touch with your doctor.
