Guest guest Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 I think answer should be salivary duct infection which is unilateral.others like viral sialadinitis is most commonly caused by mumps which is bilateral and similarly bacterial one is caused mostly by s.aureus and is bilateral as well.saliorrhea which is hypersalivation is associated with oral lesions and heavy metal poisioning but never read it to be unilateral.correct me if i am wrong.
