"I have a swollen uvula. Should I get a COVID-19 test?"

If you are experiencing a swollen uvula without a fever or cough, it is unlikely that you need a COVID-19 test. However, if the swelling persists after a few days or if you are experiencing discomfort, it is advisable to consult a doctor. In the meantime, you can try taking Tylenol™ or Advil™ to reduce the swelling and improve your comfort while lying down.
