Suggest Treatment For Ulcer On Uvula After Prolonged Singing After Drinking

My screwed up Uvula is due to singing? When I was in my 20 s a few times I would go to musical concerts get drunk, sing the whole night and wake up with a swollen uvula? It would only be enlarged for a day, but the tip would extend and be full of some type of liquid sack? Now I am in my 40 s and last weekend I went to a wedding, drank, and sang a few songs and woke up with an enlarged Uvula. I thought it would go away in a day but now I am only on day 4 of having an ulcer on my uvula and I m ready to have a nervous breakdown. I don t want to go to a doctor b/c it seems they will do little...but I m reading that it takes sometimes 2 weeks to go away? My question is if anyone else has gotten an ulcer from singing? I can t find anyone else who get s this from singing.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to a uvulitis which is an inflammation of the uvula. I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the inflammation. I also suggest to drink liquids. I recommend to gargle with salty water.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
