Otolaryngologist / ENT Specialist 's  Response
Hi Roxxy

Welcome to Healthcaremagic Forum,
This can acute sinusitis with pharyngitis. You need to start on antibiotics (better to take intravenous), drink plenty of warm water, do steam inhalation. Better to ask for a referral to an ENT specialist.
Take care

Regards

Dr. Naveen Kumar
