A member asked:
Is it normal to have a uvula that hangs way down into your throat? i've been having trouble with speaking its so big since allergy season started.

Uvula: It is not normal to have your uvula hang that far down your throat. It could interfere with swallowing, speaking or even breathing although that would be extreme. If your allergies are causing worsening of your problem, you really should have someone take a look and start some treatment for allergies. This may help you quite a bit. If medicines are not helpful, could opt for other treatment.
