Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Any type of infection should be treated carefully in pregnancy.
According to your description there is possibility of throat infection.
Severe infection can affect mother and baby.
So better to treat the infection at early stage.
Consult gynecologist once, get examined and go for antibiotics and analgesic and anti inflammatory drugs with her advice.
You can also try household remedies like warm soups, tea with honey, stream inhalation etc.
