Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to a viral infection.
The redness in the throat can last for one week or two.
I suggest to gargle with salty water.
I also recommend to use anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen .
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
