Hi,
These are symptoms of an infection that had not resolved yet though you have started antibiotics. It can be due to a viral infection which often takes one to two weeks to resolve.
So don't be panic it will relieve in a few days. For pain relief add a tablet of Paracetamol.
You also, maintain hydration so take liquids, soup in diet and take light meals.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
