Im on day 10 now and my Uvula is still huge and sore. Is it supposed to go down any time soon?
Day 6 over here and nothing new ..uvula still (extra) large ...also it hurts when i burp
I had a tonsillectomy this month. My uvula was still huge and sore eight days post-op and my E.N.T doctor noticed. He put me on some pediatric strength steroids for three days in addition to an anti-fungal mouth rinse. Within an additional four days I felt amazing and the swelling was gone. I am unsure of what you should expect since you do not seem to be taking these medications. Perhaps you could consult your E.N.T and see if this is a good option for you.
Hi there,
Uvula is very interesting part of our oral cavity. In many cases people forget that they have it. But sometimes when it gets swollen it can cause many problems and complications. The fact is that sometimes this might be caused by an infection but in many cases the swelling occur only because your uvula got injured somehow. The good thing would be to try to suck on ice as much as you can bare the cold in your mouth. Also you can try to gargle salty water in your mouth several times a day. This can help bring down the swelling, but only temporary. You can also try water with turmeric in it.
All the best,
Danella

Hi I'm 17 years old I got my tonsils out today, and my uvula is touching my tounge as well :/ i gag on it. they told me NOT TO GARGLE SALT WATER. They said gargle ice water and to drink lots of slurpees. And no dairy the first two days. So please don't gargle salt water.
But can someone please tell my why both my arms are numb? My boyfriend called the doctor, and his nurses said he would call back. That was at 2,its now 9 .still no call? Should I be worried about my numbness
