This looks like throat infection.
You need antibiotics as mild infection can be cleared by salt water gargling and yours seems moderate to severe
You can take Azithromycin 500mg 3 days , daily one tablet. This is a prescription drug and your doc will prescribe it for you.
You can add a decongestant or antihistaminic like cetrizine to help irritation.
Hope that helps
