Too much watery saliva produced...

[bronzedeskchair]

For as long as I can remember about once every six months or so I'll have problems sleeping because I produce excess watery saliva.  It'll get to the point where I'll be producing so much that my stomach will start to hurt due to swallowing too much saliva, my throat will hurt, and I can't sleep because I keep having to spit out my saliva every 10 seconds.

It's sort of hard to explain, but it's really annoying because it will happen at random times for apparently no reason at all.  Every time this happens I know I won't be getting any sleep that night.  It's currently 5:50 and I have been up for an hour and thirty minutes spitting out saliva because I can't get back to sleep.  My stomach and throat hurts and I'm currently filling up a water bottle with saliva because I can't bear to swallow it any more.  

I'm a healthy, active, 20 year old who doesn't take any medications.  I do not smoke, dip, or partake in any unhealthy habits.

Advice would be amazing.  I'm so tired of having this problem and after scouring the internet and finding nothing on it, I decided to finally post something.

Is there any way to stop saliva production or slow it down during these nights?  Perhaps by eating something?

Hello,

Since I was 13 I wake up every 3 hours with my mouth full of saliva. I can't swallow it because it's a large quantity and it is also disgusting. I have to spit it all the time and then rinse my mouth with mouthwash and / or brush my teeth. I am now 24 and something really unexpected happened. 2 weeks ago I injured my heel after a jump. I had an inflammation of the tissues which made walking very painful. I limped for a week but then it healed. All the time my heel was painful, my body stopped producing all this saliva, but went my foot stopped hurting, it went back again for about 4 days. Now it doesn't wake me up during the night anymore, but I still have a bt of saliva in the morning when I wake up. There has been a huge improvement following my foot injury and Icannot explain why but a doctor may. There is still hope :)

Lemon Juice Concentrate is another name for Lemon Concentrate and it is in grocery stores

[milknhoneyok]

Don't add water to the **Lemon Concentrate** --please drink SMALL AMOUNT of lemon concentrate  when you try this ok

[milknhoneyok]

Be careful  and remember that **Lemon Concentrate ** will cause constipation ok, so have some type of laxatives to use afterwards later ok

[milknhoneyok]

Please, try drinking some --**Lemon Concentrate **  try it in a small amount ok -- if not sick with an illness, any excitement can lead to salivation excess or decrease-- also, try not to get drinks with corn syrup-- corn syrup allergies also can cause salivation problems majorly ok
