What Causes Tingling Sensation In The Mouth With Excessive Salivation?
Question: I have tingling in my mouth with excess saliva. Sort of feels like after you eat an orange or lemon and you get that sensation In your mouth. I've had it a week. I also have been waking up at night about two hours after I go to bed being very warm and my whole body tingles and I can feel my pulses throbbing thru out my body.
I changed what I eat at night to see if that helps with feeling warm and tingly at night once I wake up. I do have heartburn which I'm on a prescription for but it doesn't fee like that when it happens. My butt actually starts tingling and then it goes from there thru out my body. Lasts for about 20 minutes.

Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone very carefully through your query. The tingling that you report could be due to peripheral neuropathy and taking methylcobalamine capsule 1500 mcg once daily for at least a couple of weeks could provide relief.
I would insist you to ignore the excess salivation. Interventions would not be advisable.
I would insist you to ignore the throbbing as well. It is a subjective sensation due to the position of the arteries. However, I would insist you to get your blood pressure checked.
About your heartburn, in order to relieve yourself, you need to do the following:
* Avoid spicy food. Take small but frequent meals. Avoid long gaps between meals.
* Avoid alcohol intake (if it a part of your habit).
* Take Prilosec (omeprazole) once daily before breakfast.
* Take plenty of green leafy vegetables as well as other sources of dietary fibers. Take fiber supplements like isabgol/psyllium husk or senna. I would insist you to increase your dietary fiber intake.
* Regular morning walk and exercise to keep the bowel movements proper.
* If I had a patient like you I would perhaps have suggested Prodep 20 mg tablet (long term anxiolytic) once daily for at least 2 months (it may take time for the action to set in).
* Take curd or yogurt on daily basis. It contains beneficial bacteria and should help.
* Stress reduction has a very important role to play. Yoga and meditation should help.
Hopefully that should help.
Let me know if I could help further.
