Hi, Thank you for asking question on Chat Doctor. Long uvula maybe a normal finding, it will not interfere with speech. As the child grows that will become normal. If it is really disturbing consult ENT specialist. Touching with silver nitrate may help. Hope this answer will serve your purposeless feel free to ask any more queries if requiredTake care Chat Doctor. V. Subrahmanyam MD;Disassociate professor of pediatrics
