Hi,

You must be having viral infection, do drink plenty of warm water, do throat gargles with betadine mouth gargles 3-4times/day after food, and take anti-inflammatory (such as diclofenac/ibuprofen) medicines. If the symptoms does not subside in a couple of days, please consult your ENT specialist.

Regards
