If there is no symptom, it can be observed temporarily and treated conservatively; if the symptom is obvious, it is recommended to remove part of the uvula by surgery.
1. Conservative treatment: For patients with no symptoms of uvula overgrowth, they should pay attention to avoid spicy and stimulating food. If there is inflammation in the throat, anti-infection treatment should be actively carried out to avoid repeated stimulation of inflammation leading to the progression of uvula overgrowth.
2. Surgery: For patients with obvious symptoms, such as foreign body sensation in the pharynx, cough, change of speaking voice, nausea, vomiting, surgical treatment, such as partial excision of uvula, can be taken to improve the uncomfortable symptoms.
If you are diagnosed with a prolonged uvula and have symptoms, it is recommended that you undergo treatment under the guidance of your doctor.
