Constant excess saliva, can't sleep

2017-09-17 17:11:11
I developed a relatively bad sore throat yesterday, and then last night I was awoken in the middle of the night due to excess saliva buildup in my mouth. It was so much that I couldn't go back to sleep because I had to keep spitting it out. This continued all throughout today and most probably tonight. Is this due to the sore throat and how can I stop it?
