You might be suffering from acute pharyngo-tonsillitis which is a common type of throat infection. You may need to take antibiotics and painkillers along with antiseptic mouth gargle for few days.
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
