Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, as you have yellowish saliva dont worry this happens when there is problem of poor oral hygiene or poor digestion also.
You do proper brushing twice daily.
Use tongue cleaner to clean your tongue daily.
Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day
Use chlorhexidine mouthwash twice daily.
Take one capsule vitamin B complex once daily for 7 days
Consult dentist and go for Scaling and root planning.
If then your problem continues then consult physician for examination and complete haemogram if necessary.
Hope this will help you.
