Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My son (9) just told me he was drooling uncontrollably during a bowel movement. I thought, Odd, but not particularly alarmed. On the other hand, he seemed rather disturbed that it happened. I suggested that it could simply be a bodily reaction to the relief he was feeling, but I would like to know more.

How To Treat Uncontrollable Drooling?
Hi, thank you for posting! I have gone through your query and I understand your concerns. In my opinion, your son s symptoms indicate that he suffers from hypersalivation, which may be a result of an abdominal disease, such as GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) or a liver disease. Your son need the following tests: - Abdominal ultrasound - Liver test - Complete blood count - Urine test You should consult your gastroenterologist, in order to determine the right diagnosis and treatment. Hope this helped. All the best, Dr. Behar.
