The sailva is thick as well. I currently have no health insurance. What do you recommend. I know #1 recommendation stop smoking everything but what else can I do?

Hi
With you query, it is mandatory to clinically and microscopically examine your saliva to know what it is. IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED TO STOP SMOKING OR CONSUMPTION OF NICOTINE O NARCOTICS IN ANY FORM MAY RESULT IN CAUSING CANCER. i assume dark spots what you see in your saliva might be blood fragments you also mentioned that saliva is thick so i would suggest you to visit your dentist for further diagnosis and treatment. Maintain good oral hygiene
