After waking up this morning I had a sore
throat but I didn't really think much of
it, but after getting up I felt my uvula
felt awkward, like I felt the uvula on my
tounge, and know its to the point where
its going down my throat and I feel like I
can swallow it. When I breathe out it
bascially flops onto the back of my
tounge, but then when I swallow it starts
hanging down my throat again, and its just
a horrible feeling knowing that. Plus im
kind of scared to sleep thinking I could
choke on it or somnething.
I tried eating a few ice pops, and
gargling hot salt water but none really
made it feel better, what is this? What
should I do about it?

I would give it a few days.. My boyfriend
had that same thing about two weeks ago.
His uvula was swollen for 2 days and
finally came down after 3-4 days. We
never figured out what caused it.. It
went down on it's own. Just keep an eye
on it. Unless it's very sore, I would
give it some time.
