What Causes Foaming Through Mouth And Sweating During Sleep?
My son who is 4 was foaming at the mouth after falling asleep last night. Do I need to be concerned?He also sweats heavily everynight as he falls asleep but not after he has been asleep for a while. He is 47.5 in tall, 46 lbs. He has had adenoids and tonsils out. Last week we got ear tubes removed.

Hi.... by what you say I feel that your child might be having a sleep disordered breathing or upper airway resistance syndrome. I suggest that you consult sleep therapist or a Pulmonologist for sleep studies on him.
