Swollen uvula

Me

Hey y’all I have mono and my uvula has been swollen since last night. It kept me up most of the night. I did call my doctor today and will have a phone appointment after I get off work. I also ran out of medicine so I don’t have anything I can take for right now, I also have a pretty bad headache. I’m trying to stick it out at work because I need the money. Is there anything else I could do or try until I can get home?
