Avatar f tn The roof of my mouth is white, and the uvula is swollen and almost touching the back of my tongue. I feel like I should keep swallowing. Never happened before. No new foods, meds, etc.
Avatar n tn For about 10 days now I have had flu like symptoms. Fisrt day was fever and sweating with acheing joints and some vomiting. Days 2-10 swollen tonsils with white patches (extremely painful). Now my uvula is swollen and sitting on my tounge. Ok so heres what I have been using to combat this.
Avatar m tn This continued for a while the doctor wasnt concerned and said it should sort itself out, it didnt recently my uvula has swollen and it is touching the back of my tongue.
Avatar f tn t think it is infected or more swollen than what is expected with this kind of surgery - when I left the hospital there was virtually no swelling or bruising 2 hours after the surgery, last night my neck got a bit splotchy above the incision site and a little swollen, now, a day later, it looks less splotchy, skin is pretty much normal color, but looks more swollen, especially when I look at my neck in profile.
Avatar m tn Every since then, I go through days where I still have trouble with the swelling coming back. The problem is that when I search for symptoms everywhere says that sore throat goes along with that symptom. I do not have a sore throat. It has gotten bad enough now that my throat feels closed off and when you look inside my mouth you can clearly see there is not much space between tonsils and my uvula is rubbing one of them.
Avatar f tn t know if my tonsils are swollen or not but it looks as if so. There is a bit of white patches on both sides of throat by uvula. Also my tongue is always dry! I don't know exactly what's wrong. Anyone have any idea?
Avatar f tn Last week on monday I felt light headed and dizzy ended up with a fever for 2 days. That thursday I felt I had strep, with the fever and sore throat seeming so familiar; I went to my Dr. To check it out. No strep, but the next day my uvula swelled up so bad I felt I couldn't breathe. Spent the whole day gargling salt, eating garlic clothes, spoons of honey and tumeric. Didn't sleep till 6 am Saturday when I couldn't stand being up anymore.
Avatar m tn Hi there, sorry, but I am really concerned about the potential for a STD and would like your perspective. Firstly, I'm a 28-year old male and I'm quite sexually inexperienced for my age. My girlfriend and I had unprotected oral sex with one another for the first time 10 days ago. After 7 days, I noticed 2 white spots on my uvula and in the past 3 days, my uvula has become enlarged, touching my tongue.
Avatar m tn My problem is now i noticed about 3 months ago after a good night of sleep(or at least i think i slepted good) i woke up to my uvula touching my tongue, what a weird feeling! actually more scary because ive never felt this before let alone know what a uvula was. I looked in my mouth and noticed it was hanging really low and red, but not really sore, just more of a scratchy dry feeling...
Avatar m tn Swollen uvula and ruptured eye vessel as well as dehrdration ...
Avatar n tn So now that my symptoms are showing I decided to take a look. The tip of my swollen uvula is not visible behind my tongue. I can feel it resting on my tongue and when I swallow, I get that familiar sand paper feeling that I can now identify as my tongue against my uvula. Research suggests that I am indeed just suffering from allergies, or perhaps tonsillitis. Whatever it is…I NEED TO FIX IT! Take these things out! Something! This happens all the time.
Avatar f tn I would see an ENT, yes. A swollen uvula is irritating for sure. It irritates you? You don't just see it, correct? https://www.healthline.com/health/swollen-uvula#causes I know you say you try to stay hydrated but dehydration is one of the biggest reasons for this occurrence. https://www.webmd.com/oral-health/causes-swollen-uvula This is another really good article. It talks about losing weight as something to try, so yes. I'd work on that too (good for overall health as well).
Avatar n tn Immediately after I noticed my throat was very sore (for obvious reasons). I shined a light into my throat and my uvula (dangly thing at the back of throat) was extremely red and had what looked like a cut or slice into it. I didn't think much of it and after a day or so the pain went away, as well as the cut. Here I am today, and for the last 3 to 4 days I have been having flu like symptoms...achy skin, always tired, and bad stomach pains and pretty severe diarrhea.
Avatar f tn Hi, sorry to hear your having problem's with your Uvula, I am also having trouble with mine, I had my tonsils out in Aug 08, now my uvula touches the back of my tongue, it seemed to go away for a while and now it's been back for 2 weeks, the Doctor said they can trim it or remove it, I was all set to have him do one or the other then I read where food or liquid can back up your nose, I have a Dr appointment for next week Feb 10th, Im not sure what Im going to do now, One more thing, afte
Avatar m tn s hanging sideways, but also the skin that was behind one of the tonsils is connected to the back of my uvula, and is covering up 1/3rd of my throat. I will be scheduling an appointment next month for a checkup, will ask the surgeon about it.
1712590 tn?1352392772 Hi, How are you? What other symptoms are present? Uvulitis or inflammation of the uvula,is usually associated with inflammation of other mouth parts, such as the palate, tonsils, or throat. It could also be due to infection or allergic reaction. Treatment varies depending on the source of the inflammation. The uvula may need to be surgically removed if repeated inflammation and enlargement occurs over time. It is best that you have this checked by your doctor or ENT for proper evaluation.
Avatar m tn I went to the doctors today to get tested for herpes. I have a sore throat, plus 2 bumps on my uvula. Plus a little bit swollen on my lymph nodes. I asked the doctor if that's what it was, was herpes? She said no she didn't see any lesions. But does 2 bumps on the uvula & a sore throat sound like a symtom? I'm freaking out & im scared. :( any help would be greatly appreciated.
Avatar f tn My vulva has been swollen for the past month or so. Sometimes it's so painful I can barely walk. I think it's because baby is pretty low. God bless!
Avatar f tn So I had chlamydia about a month ago, approximately, and my tonsils were very swollen, so when I got treated for the chlamydia they prescribed me azithromycin, so I took the medication and within a week my symptoms were going away one by one by my tonsils still are very swollen to this day and they don't seem to be going down, ive always had generally large tonsils but never this large. My tonsils have these little holes in them and sometimes the holes with have puss in them.
