Are blocked saliva gland related to under active thyroid and or ent probs am waiting for surgery for clearing sinuses and deviated septum.

Hi Debbietaff,

I've never heard of those being causes of blocked salivary glands. Salivary glands normally get blocked due to a stone that is caused by the salts in the saliva. The stone causes saliva to back up in the duct and causes it to swell.

If you have been having a problem with this for some time, you should see your dentist to have it assessed.
