Brief Answer:
Most probably you may be suffering from the pharyngitis
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
I have gone through your question and understand your concern; it suggests that most probably you may be suffering from the pharyngitis.
No need to worry, it is not a major health issue but better to avoid cold water, ice cream and cold drinks.
I would like to advised that you may go for throat swab culture and antibiotic sensitivity for specific antibiotic and oral and laryngoscopic examination to rule out the other disease and to reach the near diagnosis.
