Hi,
The brief clinical history that you provided is suggestive of an infection in the throat. Please gargle with warm salt water thrice daily for 5 days. Anti-inflammatory medications for 5 days could be helpful to relieve the pain.
Please consult your doctor and follow his/her advice if the symptoms persist.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Dr. Prasad
