Uvula distended towards right

2024-05-24 06:57:48
Hello doctor, I am a homemaker and in the last week I observed that my uvula is distended towards right side of my throat...no hurt,no pain,no fever. Showed to a general physician and they said it's okay and prescribed Amoxicillin. Also FYI - I have a dental granuloma in the molar tooth for which I had an RCT done 12 years ago and a tooth decay ( in the process of getting treatment) Could that be causing the uvula distention. Kindly assist with your valuable advice so that I can seek proper medical assistance. Thank you.
