Hi
Welcome to HealthcareMagic and thanks for putting up the query
You are probably having tonsillitis. The enlarged lymph nodes are due to this only. Please send me the picture of your throat and tell me what medicines have you been taking so far so that I can suggest you better and prescribe you accordingly.
Take care
