Hi
Thanks for your query
I can feel your concern
yes this may be a side effect of this drug, Take oral antibiotics and antipyretics like ibuprefen ,drink plenty of water avoid oily foods and soft drinks .you should do gargles and take some green tea I recommend to have a proper clinical examination.
Hope it helps
Wishing a speedy recovery
