Can Bent Uvula Cause Sore Throat?
hi I've noticed my uvula is bent on an almost 90 degree angle its been like that for a while now (a couple of years since i noticed it anyway). I've had a sore throat for about 2 or more weeks now but it hasn't developed into a cold or anything of the sort I'm wondering if this may be linked to my bent uvula or if one can even cause a sore throat

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
You are under the wrong impression the position of uvula has noting to do with the soar throat, I agree that you must be having soar throat but the uvula is not the cause of this, take care and have nice day.
