A Doctor On This Site told Me To Goggle Chlorhexdine To Stop My Constant Dry Spitting,Which I Do Like Every 5 Seconds,But I Just Found Out That This Chlorhexdine Is Nothing But Mouthwash,How Is That Suppose To Slove My problem? I Feel Like I Wasted Money On This...Honestly Would Have Been Better Of seeing a Doctor In Person

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand..

As per your complain as you have a problem of spitting every 5 seconds it means that you have excessive saliva formation and it can be due to a number of causes that can be related to either increased saliva formation or reduced swallowing /clearance..
You should not worry as you are not given any useless or wrong information as Mouthwash gargles can help in reducing the excess salivation as they have a drying effect in mouth and can really help you out..
But in order to get ruled out for the exact cause of the excessive salivation you can consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
