Hi, based on ur clinical symptoms ur suffering from pharyngitis. most common cause for sore throat is viral infection which is self limiting. And if ur symptoms persist along with high grade fever will suggest an bacterial infection for which u need to take antibiotics. Kindly contact your Physician.
