hello,
this usually happens if you are already resistant to the antibiotics being given to you.
Could you please mention names of those antibiotics so that I could help you in a better way and I would also suggest you to do gargles with betadiene(2-3 drops in lukewarm water) this would help reduce inflammation on your uvula.
regards.
