Detailed explanation-1: -A watery mouth, also called hypersalivation, sialorrhea, or ptyalism is a condition marked by excess saliva. Nausea can be accompanied by increased salivation, aversion to certain foods, and excessive swallowing. A watery mouth can have a medical cause that may also cause nausea, among other gastric symptoms.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sialorrhea usually is caused by neuromuscular dysfunction, hypersecretion, sensory dysfunction, or anatomic (motor) dysfunction. The most common cause is neuromuscular dysfunction. In children, mental retardation and cerebral palsy are commonly implicated; in adults, Parkinson’s disease is the most common etiology.
Detailed explanation-3: -Nausea is feeling an urge to vomit. It is often called “being sick to your stomach.” Vomiting or throwing-up is forcing the contents of the stomach up through the food pipe (esophagus) and out of the mouth.
