Hi XXXXXXX its always better to consult doctor and take medicine.
Since you have already started it, amoxicillin is the drug of choice for any throat infection.
So continue it , twice a day for 5 days. Side effect is you may have gastritis and loose stools. Hence take it along with food.
Any antibiotics taken very frequently is not good it reduces the immunity and also causes bacterial resistance for that antibiotics.
So next time you get a throat infection, consult doctor and take medicines.
There are chances that you may get another infection down the XXXXXXX
So please take preventive measures like avoid eating cold and oily foods, avoid drinking contaminated water, curds and citrus fruits juices.
When ever you get infection treatment is same with antibiotics either tablet or injection.
If your throat infection occurs very frequently like once a month then you can get your tonsil operated and removed.

One more help i need now as my wife is also complaining about choked throat and having cough so please advice cough syrup for both of us i am also having cough.
Brief Answer:
wait and watch.
Detailed Answer:
Hi your pain will take at least 3 days to reduce.
Any medicine takes about 48 hours to start their action.
So don't worry on all small issues. Just relax, drink boiled water, lots of tender coconut water also.
Take adequate rest.
You don't use cough syrup, once congestion reduces cough will reduce. Do salt water gargle or betadine gargle.
Your wife can take any cough syrup containing dextromethrophan for dry cough , guiaphenisin for wet cough.
