Why My 4 Year Old Daughter Is Having Too Much Saliva In Her Mouth?
Hello. My 4 year old Daughter has started getting too much saliva in her mouth.. she is holding it in though so she looks like a little hamster. She has just started school, so i am not sure if it is related to that, or if it could be something to do with her tonsils...

Hi.. If due to some reason there is pain during deglutation child will not swallow the saliva and it will accumulate in mouth.. . There can be various reasons for this like tonsillitis, pharyngitis, adenoids and others.. So u need to visit either pediatrician or ENT specialist so that he can examine the child and guide you further..... Thanks
