You are having migraine attack as per history associated with sore throat
You have taken paracetamol and ibuprofen for migraine, but not helping, so further treatment given...
As you are not responding to these primary drugs, rizatriptan drug can be prescribed for headache relief... If still not helping repeat one tablet again after two hour...
For sore throat salt water gargle or diluted betardine gargle can be done.. ASO titre should be done and if needed antibiotic prescribed...
Avoid exposure to bright light, loud noise, hypoglycemia, lack of sleep etc... Avoid smoking if having habit...
With keeping all this in mind consult nearby physician for your treatment...
Hope your concern solved
