Throat infection

2024-06-30 14:26:21
I have a bad throat right now. I've been experiencing pain while swallowing food and even while drinking water. I've never had tonsils in my life before. What should I do? Because of my throat I was also getting fever though the temp remained around 99-100. Now the fever has subsided but the pain while swallowing is still there and my throat is bad. Please help.
