Two days before when I was chewing food, I accidentally scratch my tongue with my teeth. From then, I can feel it scratched my throat. Now, I am facing huge pain in my neck and throat and I am not able to eat any food except liquid items. Any cold liquid items relieve my pain temporary. Please let me know is there any pain medicine I can take and what else I need to do next.

You seem to 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 for faster recovery
