Best non pharmacological measure to relieve throat pain is gargle. At least do 3-4 times daily. For cold take an antihistaminic like Montair FX. But i would suggest you to consult a physician.
Next Steps
Betadine gargle 2 times and warm salt water gargle 2 times alternately.

You can get reinfected if you came in contact with any Covid positive patient.
Next Steps
Look for other symptoms like fever, diarrhoea and contact directly for further evaluation and treatment
