Thanks to HCM I can understand your concern
as you mentioned the symptoms are related to pharyngitis it is due to infection with virus or bacteria
so I would like to ask you plz complete the couse of antibiotic for 5 days like augmentin 625 twice daily along with acecloplus and montair lc once daily for 3 days
as oral cavity more susceptible to virus and bacteria due to smoking habit better avoid it ,ok plz drink plenty of liquids ,have a brushing twice or thrice daily keep clean after food
don't worry it will cure your swollen glands below chin and pain in throat ok
