HI.
Such symptoms can be due to enlarged tonsils and edema of other structures of the throat due to flu or infection of some sort.
It is better to take an opinion of an ENT Surgeon to get a proper ENT Examination done and treatment according to clinical judgment.
You may need a course of an antibiotic and anti-inflammatory medicines for one to 3 weeks.
If this is a long standing problem and not getting relief with the medical management you have to go for surgery to remove the offending organs.
