What Causes Excessive Salivation While Suffering From Sore Throat?

My son is 17 and has the flu or virus. He had a fever and threw up a couple of days ago and is still fighting the sore throat, bad cough and congestion. He is producing alot of saliva and is spitting it out. Should he be swallowing it instead? Thank you. (He is going to the doctor this morning)
