Hello dear and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

Your symptoms seem to be related to tonsillitis which is an inflammation and infection of the tonsil.
I recommend to take anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen 400 mg three tablets a day.
I also recommend taking antibiotics such as Augmentin 625 mg twice a day.
It is a prescription medication so you should consult your doctor before this treatment.
I suggest to use a throat spray for antibacterial properties.
I also suggest to drink liquids and gargle with salty water.
