You seem to be suffering from viral upper respiratory tract infection which is a common type of throat and nose infection in this season. You may need to take antibiotics, anti cold medicines and decongestant nasal drops for few days for faster recovery. You can use over the counter analgesics for symptomatic pain relief
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
