Uvula has membraneous/swollen for long time
by imago17sx, Jun 29, 2008 02:15PM
Hello friends -
My uvula at the back of my palate has felt swollen & membraneous for over a year now. I can always feel it with my tonge at the back of my throat. It always hangs to the right as well so I can feel it with my tongue on the right side of my mouth. With that said, there is no pain, just irritating cause I always tend to touch it with my tongue while it hangs on the right side. For the longest time I thought it was a mysterious ball of saliva there, but I found out its my uvula.
Any suggestions? Thanks so much.
Cheers,
Sam.
