Brief Answer:
Your symptoms are suggestive of tonsillitis/pharyngitis.

Detailed Answer:
The throat and tonsil symptoms are suggestive of pharyngitis/tonsillitis, usually caused by bacterial infection. It would be useful to take a course of antibiotics, such as augmentin (amoxycillin and clavulinic acid).
