Painful swallowing, had reflux symptoms

2020-11-03 14:14:29
Few weeks back I observed food is coming back to my throat often especially at night. I didn't have any other symptoms like stomach pain or burning sensation. After few days started throat pain and also slight piercing feeling whenever I drink water. Since last Sat, started difficulty in swallowing anything due to pain. Looked in the mirror and found my tonsils and middle hanging part also swollen. Don't have any cold, fever. Sometimes I get cough. Paracetamol gives relief for few hours and I am not taking more than one per day. I feel reflux and this is related. I can't visit a doctor till this weekend, so asking here. Attaching a pic here. Any temporary relief I can get?
