I am suffering from one of these at the moment. Feeling incredibly pathetic and sorry for myself! It's basically about 3 times the size it should be and in constant contact with my tongue. Not nice as it means I can't talk properly and am constantly having a build up of saliva which is rather disgusting. It is combined with a sore throat as well so happy times lay ahead for Mr Price.
Does anyone know of any remedies for it?

I think I have a swollen brain because I read the title as Swollen vulvas. Needless to say I was expecting very NSFW content. :lol:

:D :D :D I can see why you would think that. Whoever came up with the name for body parts screwed up on these two :lol:

Swollen uvulvas. Sounds Saucy.

I agree with every post so far.
-
I would definitely recommend using some powerful mouthwash if you don't already.
I've had a slew of throat infections in the past and using alcoholic mouthwash has killed that off completely.
Incidentally I have two; one large one and a smaller one at the side; probably just cleft by some freak of nature.

How very strange. I would normally ask for photos on something unusual - in this case I won't be asking for them!
Will get some mouthwash on it and see what it has to say about that!

i have a swollen cervical node, now thats a funny sounding swelling!! ;)
just for clarification its in my neck, i am not hiding a cervix anywhere about my person
generally it happens anytime i am fighting off a throat infection, the current one has been around for a couple of weeks now though so its on the verge of being worrying

Yeah, I wouldn't want to run the risk of swallowing the camera anyway...

Well, now I know what uvulas and cervical nodes are, thanks to Google. You learn a lot hanging around this forum.
Funnily enough, I had what felt like a couple of lumps/swellings on the back of my tongue last week, but they disappeared fast. Or maybe I forgot about them because I then got a sore throat and another cold. So far in 2009 there hasn't been a single day when I've felt 100%. :(
Good luck sorting out your swellings, guys.

Pics, or it didn't happen...

:D Sadly I didn' take any pics of it. Not quite so sad is that my uvula is, although still swollen, now reducing in size and I am getting close to my 'normal' voice.

Well, I'm glad somebody said it.
-
Gargle with hot salt water.
Oh yeah, and some pic's!
-
Gargle with tea tree oil but do not swallow it! Colloidal silver can be dripped onto the swollen area. Calendula complex ( made by Bioforce). These are the things that Mrs 38th suggests.

Cheers for the responses all. My uvula is now nearly back to normal size. A big relief. Only problem now is that I have suffered some sort of allergic reaction to some tablets I was taking to get rid of/fight a fever. I now look like I have done a few too many hours on a sunbed. Classy.
Anyway - back to work tomorrow so there is everything to be cheerful for!

Ardbeg
Seeing as that response is from you Johnny I'm going to take a complete guess that Ardbeg is some kind of Whisky. I don't even feel the need to look it up on google. That's how strong my suspicion on this one is!

Just got back from hols, hence the rather late response...
I had an inflamed uvula a few years ago (and it occasionally swells up if I have viral infections now). It was hanging down my throat and inducing the gag reflex, which was, frankly, horrible!!!
I could 'throw' up the uvula onto my tongue, which was pretty nasty!
I went to the GP, and she was so disgusted that she called in the other doctors (I never want to hear the phrase 'Oh my GOD! Do you mind if I bring my colleague in to see this, that's incredible!' in that context from a doctor EVER again!).
I couldn't do anything about it, and eventually the swelling went down on its own. Quite uncomfortable!
Hope yours is better now.

ah, all makes sense, I had one of those on New Years day from too much cider :?

In a different context, it might be something to brag about....
