I've been noticing that when I wake up in the morning and spit out the saliva that's built up overnight, it's yellow. I've tried brushing my teeth before going to bed and even using mouthwash, but it still happens. It's been a problem for the past couple of months. Any idea what might be causing this?
This can be due to conditions like dry mouth, sinus infections, or even acid reflux. I would recommend using an antibacterial mouthwash like Listerine twice daily and staying hydrated throughout the day. If the issue persists, you can try over-the-counter antacids like Tums for acid reflux. If symptoms continue, consult a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.
