Suggest Treatment For Persistent Viral Pharyngitis

I have had a bad sore throat along with ear pain and headache for the past seven days. My glands are swollen and tender to the touch. I went to the ER because of severe pain in my throat and ears and was diagnosed with viral pharyngitis. How long should I wait before I go back to the doctor? Symptoms are not much better.
