Question

Foaming Saliva

Asked for Male, 6 Years

Hello Doctor, My daughter (6yrs) has tonsils (Adenoids) diagnosed last couple of months, she is taking Metaspray (nasal spray) twice in a day as a medication. Since last couple of days we have observed that while sleeping she is passing small portion of foaming saliva (white color). We are bit worried y because saliva is coming out like foam. Is it ok or do we need to consult a doctor for any medication. Please share your valuable inputs.

Don't worry about saliva coming out from mouth. It may be due her oral breathing at night. Continue with Metaspray. Once adenoid is resolved her oral breathing will stop.
