Hello,
As per your history, it may be due to sore throat.
For pain you can take tablet acetaminophen.
You can do steam inhalation and Betadine gargle twice a day.
You may require antibiotics after physician consultation.
In case of fever, you may require complete hemogram, throat swab after consultation.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
