Why am i drooling in my sleep all of a sudden

Sudden drooling while sleeping is a cause of concern if associated with some medical condition. Sometimes, poor oral and facial muscle control are the common factors.

In other cases, the other causes linked to it are:

Much like everything else, gravity affects drooling on pillows and how we sleep at night also causes or prevents saliva buildup. 

Sleeping in a position face down on the pillows leads to the contortion of the facial muscles, resulting in saliva leaving the mouth.

However, it does not necessarily indicate that you have hypersalivation or some medical issues. 

Often, drooling while sleeping is a common sign of neurological conditions such as cerebral palsy or Parkinson’s, or epilepsy.

Even in patients who have experienced a stroke, blood does not flow properly to the brain. If left untreated, this may damage the nervous system, leading to difficulty swallowing or drooling. 

More of a byproduct than the sign of the problem, drooling while sleeping remains a troublesome condition.&
