I went through the history you have posted.
It seems from the history that you are having sore throat and swelling in the neck. The swelling in the neck is probably because of inflammation of throat and this will subside with treatment for sore throat.
Sore throat needs to be treated with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs.

Do consult your doctor for further evaluation and treatment.

Do write back to me for further questions.
