Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Drooling of saliva may be due to gastroesophageal reflux disease or ulcers in throat or bells palsy or stroke etc.
Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is.

Hope I have answered your query.
