Many times acute pharyngo-tonsillitis may be a viral infection and won't respond to any antibiotics. Pain killers might have worked for you. You need to use symptomatic medication such as painkillers and antiseptic mouth gargle for few days. Symptoms will resolve spontaneously
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
