Suggest Treatment For Irritating Bump On Uvula

Hello I was just wondering what the flesh coloured bumo on my uvula is. It has been irritating me for about 8 months now. It looks like a pimple on my uvula that wont pop. It prevents me from singing I had a very sore throat for a month when I got it, since then I have quit smoking. Should I see an ENT and do I need a referral from a family doctor in order to see one in Ontario?

hello read through your query accordingly i must say that nothing to be worried in this case.It can be caused due to trauma( like fish bone or shell scratching through it)or any burns (while having hot food).or some constant irritation to that area.So I suggest you to meet p an ENT and get it treated based on the present clinical condition(as diagnosis said by me is purely based on your symptoms said by you treatment plan can vary depending on the clinical presentation).In the meantime I suggest you to
1)do warm salt water gargle(to increase healing)
2)do tongue scraping(to avoid transfer of microbes of tongue to cause infection there)
3)do chlorhexidine mouth rinse
4)drink lots and lots of water
5)have lots of fruitsand green leafy vegetables(to remove any deficiency and promote healing by itself)
Besides all these stay cool and happy.COOL and HAPPY MIND can be best medicine for any disease condition of the body.Hope you are benefitted somethin =g from this reply.Have a Healthy Day!!!!
