I have a semi gross question. I have been playing a lot lately and a lot of tunes in the higher ocatves. For some reason now, I drool worse than a baby when i start to play.
I never had this problem before and the only thing I have changed was the heads on my generation.
Is this a normal thing or am I going to die from some “Mad Whistle Spore” or something? I cleaned the head with some alcohal to no avail. I am also finding this makes the whistle pretty gross on the inside too.
I am sure this has been asked before but I am gonna ask again
Salivation will be greatly enhanced by sipping beer or soda pop while playing. It also varies with weather/humidity, as if it is dry you won’t have nearly the problem.
However, the cheap fix is any over-the-counter antihistamine. Look for chloropheniramine in particular and only get that ingredient. You don’t need the decongestants at all, just the antihistaminic ingredient.
