Today morning when i woke up i have swollen uvula, what should i take? is this something serious?

Not usually serious: Swollen uvula is usually related to trauma perhaps from snoring or from viral infection. There are other causes such as allergy and angioedema but would not likely be limited to uvula. Should resolve on its own in a few days.
