Why Is My Son Not Swallowing His Saliva?
Hi, my son is 2 years of old. From today morning, he is not swallowing the saliva produced in his mouth. He is keeping it in his mouth and spitting it off after few minutes. I cant understand this behavior of my son . I am afraid, if any thing is wrong with him. Please suggest..

Hi, in my opinion your son might be having throat pain, because of which he is not swallowing the saliva.
Empirically you can give him paracetamol syrup 125 mg 5 ml twice daily and see.
If symptoms persist you can consult your doctor.
