Is Spitting Of Saliva While Getting Treated For Chronic Sinusitis Normal?

Hi dr I have suffered chronic sinusitis over the last few weeks have been given second round of antibiotics and just wondering how do I get rid of spitting up so much saliva ? Is that a recovery mode where the nasal or sinus cavities are releasing the fluid or is it a new problem altogether where the salivary glands are irritated and are producing too much saliva ? What happens if I swallow it back will This get re infected in so tensed about this chronic sinusitis ! Please help!
