Severe throat pain + fever
I am having severe throat pain while swallowing/drinking anything since last 4-5 days along with fever. The throat pains worsens further at night making it difficult to swallow even saliva. It started with 102° fever along with chills on first day which reduced with paracetamol. Now i am usually having a fever of 99-100° with paracetamol taken almost 24 hours back. I am also having mild headache and weakness in my body with a general feeling of unwell. Mild cough(mostly dry) is also there since yesterday. Please suggest something.
