What Is The Treatment For Black Spots In Saliva?
black spots in saliva - my friend was very worried one day and went to hospital for black spots in saliva(from lungs), he went to the hospital and had tests done with tubes/ incisions on his left side, they are clueless with results, i am sure that this problem he has was contributed by marijuana and cigarette smoke, i am a frequent only marijuana smoker and i do also find black spots in my fleghm.. i ve always been passive with these sideeffects, since i simply thought that my lungs are cleansing themselves by releasing this resin ...do you concur?

Hello,
The black spot in the phlegm could be related to the smoking. Anyway, I recommend performing a chest X-ray study and a phlegm bacterial culture, in order to see if everything is all right.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
