Suggest Treatment For Swollen Uvula

Swollen and very sore uvula. I woke up at 1 am with severe pain in my mouth, I had a swollen uvula. I tried to go back to bed, eventually woke up at 4:45 and my uvula is still very swollen and has white patches on it. My left tonsil is also enlarged. Help please! Should I go to my doctor?

ENT Specialist 's  Response
Hi, thanks for the query.
Start antiseptic mouthwash , Plenty of fluids , combination of Paracetemol + Ibuprofen , Antibiotic azithromycin for 5 days.
Certainly above treatment will give you much relief but if relief is not upto satisfaction level then consultation with your ENT doctor will become essential.
Hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
