WHY PEOPLE DROOL

Rising Heroes Podcast w/Toluse Francis

In this episode, I discussed that drooling, why people drool, and treatment options available such as home remedies and those that require doctor's attention

Drool is excess saliva that comes out of your mouth. While it can feel uncomfortable when it happens, most of us drool once in a while, especially during sleep. At night, your swallowing reflexes are relaxed just like the rest of the muscles in your face. This means that your saliva can accumulate and some can escape through the sides of your mouth. The medical terms for drooling too much are sialorrhea and hypersalivation.
Though drooling while you sleep is fairly common, sometimes drool is a symptom of a neurological condition, sleep disorder, or other health condition. You might drool more after a health event like a stroke, or as a result of cerebral palsy or multiple sclerosis (MS).

Don't forget to favorite and share.

Questions: do you have a partner who drools? If yes, how have you been handling it?
