Can't see the tonsillar area clearly in the given images. Please consult with better pictures. Meanwhile u can try Betadine gargle 2% 5ml mixed with 5ml water thrice daily.

It could be granular pharyngitis since there doesn’t seem to be apparent tonsillitis.
Don’t take anymore antibiotics after the current course.
Start 1. Tab Levocetirizine 10mg once at night after dinner for 5 days
2. Tab Pantoprazole 40mg twice a day once in the morning empty stomach and once in the evening 1hour before dinner. For 7 days then reduce to once a day in the morning for next 7 days
3. Dispirin gargles ( 1 tab of Dispirin dissolved in 1/2 glass warm water) for 10 days
Drink frequent sips of lukewarm water and avoid spicy food and tea/coffee
