Hello,
Thanks for the consult...

Brief answer,
Need not be worried

Detailed explanation,
1. You mentioned that you done sex with a prostitute and done ELISA test after 50 days of risk exposure
2. The result came to be negative so don't worry you are in safe side
3. Now you are getting throat pain which may be due to local bacterial infection by streptococcus or by staphylococcus causing tonsilitis which is no way related to the hiv infection
4. Even if you had any doubt then kindly do the confirmation test called WESTERN BLOT test

Hope this information helps
