Thanks for asking in healthcaremagic forum

In short: Uvula helps in voice production. No need to remove it. You are not the only person to get angioedema

Explanation: Take precautions to prevent angioedema, and get treated yourself for sinusitis with antibiotics and anti inflammatory drugs. Please consult a doctor before doing anything on your own. Good luck.
