Suggest Remedy For Sore Throat And Ear, Bright Red Color With White Circle At The Back Of Throat

I have a sore throat and ear on the right side. The back of my throat on the right side only is bright red and there is a white circle about 5mm across on the middle of the red area. I have no problems swallowing and don't feel unwell otherwise but it feels like someone's grinding glass into the back of my throat and the tube up to my ear.
