Taken Penicillin For Strep Throat, Swollen Uvula, Cannot Swallow. How Can I Eat?
Hiya. I went to the doctor & was positive for Strep Throat . They put me on Penicillin . I m on my 2nd day of taking them, but my uvula is so swollen that I can t eat or drink & can barely even swallow my own spit. How do I unswell it enough so I can eat? Oh & I m still breathing okay, I m just starved. Thanks for your response in advance! ~Kim
