OMG! Mr. Kitty has had that multiple times...very freaky! All he can remember doing (other than gagging) is gargling salt water. Good luck!
That stuff is horrible!! I had uvulitis last year (sounds like what you have) and was in SO much pain that I went to the ER. Don't really remember what they did for it, but I have never had my throat hurt that badly. See a doctor, soon.
gargle with warm salt water will reduce swelling. Biotene mouthwash is good for restoring natural PH of the mouth.
My uvula used to swell up like that after a hard night of snoring (usually following a hard night of spirits) Honestly felt like a piece of steak was stuck in my throat! Did get a consult from a surgeon, and like JB said, the effects of the surgery sounded worse than the problem. I started using a CPAP machine a few years ago and haven't had a problem since.
Is that why you were so quiet at lunch and I had to eat your dessert? Actually I'd put money on these two statements above. I've been through this. It goes away. Salt water does work. However, if it doesn't, see a doctor.
Heck I wish you had said something. I had needle nose plyers in my glove compartment, could have pulled that sucker right out, gave you a bowl of ice cream and you'd be over it by now.

. I think you still had not arrived when I told the tables.a fellow trained surgeon. I carry a gutter nail and a 22oz. hammer around with me full time in case I need to perform emergency brain surgery or elective for that matter. Maybe we can barter services
