causes of thick white salavia?
462606
Generally white saliva or mucous is a normal way for the lungs to keep themselves clean. If it is thick you may be dehydrated. The easiest way to make mucous thinner is to drink water. Water helps thin out the mucous and make it easier for the body to absorb. If you have any color like yellow, green, brown, you might have some kind of infection.

It sounds like calcium deposits to me. If that is the case, you just have to let your fingernails grow. Cut them like you normally would until the white spots get far enough uot to cut them off

It could be lots of different things. Such as strep throat, gonorehha, thrush. I would definatly go to the Dr. Whenever you see white on your throat, that means infection. The only way to get rid of it is to take antibiotics. A Dr. would probably give you pennisilin(however you spell it) well, he would not give that to me because I am allergic to it. But it's probably strep throat unless you have had oral sex lately. I've had strep many times, it's painful, and WILL NOT clear on its own. It only gets worse.

It is possible that it is thrush (because of the antibiotics), so try eating some yogurt (with live culture).  It may take a couple servings and days to clear up.\nHowever, not always is a white coating "thrush", sometimes it can be caused by dehydration or what you have eaten.  \nMake sure that you drink lots of water and buy a tongue cleaner.  It works far better than brushing and can be found by the floss in your local pharmacy or Wal-mart type store.  These are made specifically for removing bacteria from your tongue.

See a doctor.  There are certain ailments that cause this to happen.

It might be asthma from the mould, or your partner has it in for you, as it only happened when he moved in! eek!\nI would say you need a letter from your local Council/health enviroment to explain the extent of the mould then have the cause investagated and take it from there.

A new blood clot could maybe be there, perhaps there is enough lateral flow to keep the swelling subsided.  But I'm thinking more likely it could be a lymphatic problem and fluid is accumulating lymphatically.  Definitely keep on top of this with your doctor!  Get well!

Your lungs had an infection. All the little filters in your lungs picked up something it didnt like. So you HAVE to breathe to stay alive so naturally this will take some time.\nGet checked for allergies also so it wont be triggered again.

Is it actually the white bit of her eye?  I think this can be quite common and looks alot more serious than it actually is, however because your grandmother is on the medication I think it's important she goes to see her gp, especially if this happens to her often

Hello,\nI don't know anything about this disease sorry.\nI would suggest you get another opinion from another doctor. Have more test run. Blood work, nuc meds, MRI on her lungs if this is where this is found.  etc., etc.\nThis can be caused by a number of things. The important thing for you and your daughter is to make sure this is what she has....Never trust one doctor in serious medical problems. \nYou did not say exactly what or where this disease was found I am assuming the lungs?\nPS: If your doctor did not suggest other test to confirm this he should have.
