Hi everyone.
I've noticed that while I'm alseep, I'm drooling and soaking my pillow. Is this a condition of PsA or should I seek futher medical advice.

I put it down to PSA giving chronic sinusitis, gum & ear infections, I've always got runny or blocked nose so sleep with mouth open snoring my head off but now your question had me wondering if its part of multiple health problems caused by PSA?

Born with plaque psoriasis misdiagnosed as cradle cap, as far back as I remember I've dribbled when asleep whether it's due to psoriasis or PSA I'm none the wiser but..
Auto immune diseases can give dry mouth
PSA more importantly causes gum Inflammation & further to periodontal gum disease
Medications can also cause a dry mouth
I've severe gum disease been thirsty all my life due to kidney problems since then learnt to drink alot, when I don't drink atleast 4L daily, headaches start.
There is a link between PSA & severe gum disease an article you can read on here but I've looked all over, nothing I read mentions dribbling whilst asleep 😴 look forward to hearing what your consultant said

I have this same issue, it started with a flare cycle, and this is a symptom that has not left.
