Hello and welcome to the HealthcareMagic!
You are having acute pharyngitis infection.
Such presentation can occur in viral.
If it doesn't improve in 3-5 days with a decongestant treatment than further investigation will be needed such as:
1) CBC
2) Auscultation
3) ASO titre
If there is no improvement, then an antibiotic course can be prescribed. You can also do diluted salt water gargles.
Hope this solves your concern.
Take care
