I've been struggling with excessive salivation for the past 6 months and have tried medications like glycopyrrolate, fluoxetine, and pantoprazole but nothing seems to work. Are there any surgical options or injections that could help stop this problem? I'm really desperate for a solution to control this constant salivation issue.

Consider a second opinion from another ENT specialist or a maxillofacial surgeon. Discuss: 1. Repeat imaging tests (MRIultrasound) to monitor gland size. 2. Salivary gland function tests (e.g., salivary flow rate). 3. Biopsy or fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) to rule out underlying conditions. Explore treatment options, such as: 1. Medications to reduce gland size. 2. Surgical interventions (e.g., parotidectomy). 3. Lifestyle modifications (e.g., dietary changes, stress management).
