Hello and welcome to health care magic,

It usually take a couple of days for the medications which are especially oral to give you some relief.
In any case if the relief is not there then it either means that the treatment is not working or the diagnosis may be wrong
You need to consult an ENT as soon as possible and consider measure such as injectable antibiotis, throat swab culture so that a proper treatment can be done

hope this helps

regards
