Brief Answer:
Yes, you can try general medication

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
I have gone through your query, it suggests that you may be suffering from the acute pharyngitis.
For this you may take
1. Tablet containing azithromycin and levofloxacin for five days.
2. Hexidine mouth gargles.
3. Avoid cold water, icecream and smoking if you have.

Wish you good health.

Thanks
