Hi, my daughter's uvula is a bit to the left when she opens her mouth. she has been coughing alot the past few days. should i be worried?

Dr. can check throat: New throat symptoms like those may be from a strep throat infection (antibiotics are needed), a cold or influenza (antibiotics usually not used), or from some other cause such as allergies or irritants. Usually, a person sees the doctor if the sore throat is very painful, recurrent, or doesn't go away quickly (mainly to check for strep infection, which may cause palatal or uvular reddish dots).
