Hi XXXXX,
Welcome to healthcare Magic!
The prolonged pain condition in the throat should not be ignored because it can be an ulcer, tonsillitis or even a malignancy.
You should consult a local ENT doctor and get the throat local examination done and if needed suitably invesigated.
delaying and trial treatments can cause big harm.
You should do meticulous mouthcare to keep up oral health, brush twice a day and do chlorhexidine mouth gargles thrice a day and avoid eating any edibles during ensuing 2 hours to ensure good germicidal effect of chlorhexidine; Do warm saline gargles after you take anything orally.
I hope the advise would be informative and useful for you.
Take Care!
