    Many people think that only children drool, but adults do.

    Under normal circumstances, we do not drool after falling asleep, and if this phenomenon occurs frequently, it shows that the body is deficient in kidney and qi, and it is biased towards yang deficiency. The so-called "yang" refers to the functional state of the body. People with yang deficiency lack muscle elasticity and are prone to relaxation, so after falling asleep, they will open their mouths and form an outflow of saliva.

    Of course, if you have a cold and a stuffy nose and need to open your mouth to breathe, this is not the case. If you often drool during sleep, it is best to pay more attention to your body and replenish it in time. On weekdays, you can take more traditional Chinese medicine to strengthen the spleen and kidney, such as lotus seeds, gourd seeds and Chinese yam, if there is no dry mouth and bitter mouth, you can add Codonopsis.

    Drooling while sleeping may be caused by some "minor problems" that need to be paid attention to.

    First of all, it may be an improper sleeping position. Sleeping on the table or sleeping on your side can easily cause drooling.

    Secondly, inflammation in the mouth also promotes saliva production. If the mouth is infected by bacteria, the pain is obvious, and it is easy to drool, and topical medication is needed to promote the healing of ulcers, and the drooling will disappear automatically. Dental deformities are the third cause of drooling while sleeping.

    Especially in patients with convex dental deformities, the anterior teeth protrude more obviously, and the lips are often open and toothy, and it is difficult for the lips to completely cover the anterior tooth surface when sleeping, and the upper and lower lips are often naturally separated, which makes it easy to drool. It is advisable for such patients to have their teeth straightened as soon as possible. In addition to the oral problems mentioned above, there are also systemic diseases that can cause drooling while sleeping.

    Some people with neurosis or other systemic disorders that may cause autonomic disorders may also experience abnormal parasympathetic nervous excitement while sleeping, which can cause the brain to send false signals and cause increased saliva production.
