Sore throat 3 weeks can feel uvula touching my tongue feels cold when i breath and irritated doc said viral last week ?

Could be: The uvula can definitely swell with a viral infection. It should decrease to regular size within 7-10 days. If it does not go back to normal or if it seems to be getting larger, see your doctor again - you may need a steroid to help with the swelling.
