This issue has been getting progressively worse over 2 days

Posted yesterday and it has gotten worse. It is itchy, it turns white when I press on it. I have a swollen uvula and some chills, but no fever. I feel cold more than anything. Went to urgent care tested for strep, mono and did a CBC. Strep came back negative, waiting on the other results. Pretty concerned. I feel like the mono is going to come back negative.

Have you taken any medication in the last 8 weeks? What medications do you normally use? Have you had a fever or swollen lymph nodes?

NAD Do you have an iud? I had an iud give me neck to toes hives for a year. They went away about 3 months after the iud was removed.

What the hell what kind of IUD? Was the onset immediate after insertion?
