Hello,
You need to get done ent examination done to see for presence of any infective foci.
You might require antibiotics and anti inflammatory medications and anti infalmmatory enzymes to decrease the pain and inflammation .
There could be enlarged tonsil which need to get treated . If you have recurrent attacks of the tonsillar infection then you should get them removed surgically.
