A member asked:
My son is almost 4 yrs old & still sometimes drools is that a sign of anything?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Intermittent drools: Intermittent drooling in a 4 year old is most likely due to pain from molar eruption or sore throat. Persistent drooling would be more concerning for a neurological condition which causes decreased muscle tone of the mouth and throat.
