One possibility is that it could be pharyngitis...with fever and sore throat.
Another possibility is allergy to the paint.
Quite unlikely due to the meat consumed... unless you also have loose motion and vomiting or nausea.

I would advise you to have warm water at regular intervals.
Take a tablet of paracetamol.
Do warm saline or betadine gargles.

Hope this helps...
