How To Treat An Ulcer On My Uvula?

I have an ulcer on my uvula according to a previous diagnosis from a physician... I have been trying to get rid of it for a long time now and nothing has really been working. Lately there is a bright redness around my uvula and throat area around it that also has a dark coloured vein developing on it.

Hello dear,

All these symptoms suggest that you might be suffering from upper respiratory tract infection(most probably viral infection)

The management consists of:
1. Drinking of warm fluids to reduce throat pain
2. Antihistamines to provide symptomatic relief.
3. Analgesics to take care of pain & fever(if any)
4. A course of antibiotics to prevent secondary bacterial attack.
5. Maintain adequate hydration & healthy balance diet.
6. Also make sure that you are well protected from cold, dust & other allergens.

So...it will be better to consult an ENT Specialist & start treatment.
Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Take care.
