It could possibly be the problem with the blood vessels and the circulation? Or just another nerve problem?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:43px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Solutions I\u2019ve Found:<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hard candies help. I tend to drink a lot of water but make sure to add some electrolytes to it if you&#8217;re drinking a lot. There are dry mouth mouthwashes that can help as well. Eye drops can help with the eyes but use them sparingly because they can make it worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:36px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Further Reading<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDry Eye Syndrome and Sicca Complex are Commonly Found in Patients with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome.\u201d <em>PubMed<\/em>, 20 November 2020, <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/33244220\/\">https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/33244220\/<\/a>.
