Swollen Uvula.?

So this is the second time that I have had my uvula swollen. The first time I had it checked out by my doctor and he said it was just a mild case of Uvulaitis. So he prescribed me an antibiotic along with a steroid. After a week it worked. Now 3 month later, it has come back, and it is hard for me to breath, if i talk long enough, I start to gag from it. I was thinking that my tonsils are still a little bit infected from the streap throat that I had. Because this is twice it has happened. What do you guys think I should do.

    At this point you need to be seen, I would want a future, not just a strep test, also you need treatment again, possibly an ENT referral
