Does strep throat cause your face to be swollen?

For about a week, I've had Strep throat but hadnt been to the doctor. Eventually, the pain got to me and he prescribed me some antibiotics (Amoxicillin Trihydrate). I took my one pill that afternoon, and one after dinner. I took a third one this morning around 6 AM and went back to sleep. I woke up feeling something in the back of my throat i just couldn't swallow. Turns out its my uvula.
