What are the folk prescriptions for elderly people's drooling?

There is no folk prescription for treating drooling in the elderly clinically. Patients are advised to go to a regular hospital for regular treatment to avoid believing in folk prescriptions and secret recipes and delaying the best treatment time. Drooling in the elderly may be caused by facial paralysis, Alzheimer's disease, cerebral vascular stenosis, etc., and symptomatic treatment is required.

1. Facial paralysis:

Drooling in the elderly may be related to facial paralysis and facial nerve paralysis, which may lead to fatigue of facial muscle contraction and cause the above-mentioned discomfort symptoms. Acupuncture, hot compress, massage and other physical therapies can promote facial blood circulation and improve the patient's discomfort symptoms.

Alzheimer's disease is a degenerative disease of the central nervous system that occurs in the elderly and the early stages of the elderly, characterized by progressive cognitive dysfunction and behavioral impairment. The clinical manifestations are the above-mentioned discomfort symptoms, accompanied by symptoms such as memory impairment, aphasia, apraxia, and agnosia. Patients are advised to use Carbaryl Bitartrate Capsules, Donepezil Hydrochloride Tablets, and Ginkgo Biloba Extract Tablets under the guidance of a doctor.

3. Cerebral vascular stenosis:

Cerebral vascular stenosis may affect swallowing function, and the saliva secreted from the mouth cannot be swallowed in time, leading to the above-mentioned discomfort symptoms.

In addition to the above reasons, it may also be due to cerebral infarction, cerebral thrombosis and other reasons. Regardless of the cause, you need to go to a regular hospital for symptomatic treatment.
