Have Upper Respiratory Infection. Took Antibiotic. Having Sore Tongue And Throat. Took Allegra. Should I Be Concerned?

I have had an upper resp infection for over two weeks. Went thru a round of antibiotics (Z-pak) and 3 days of prednisone . I now only take tylenol for any residual pain. The underside of my left tongue is sore and my throat is still sore, which I relate to allergies of all kinds. I take Allegra (180 otc) and a small dose of lisonpril. along w/vits. At what point should I be concerned about the sore throat/tongue?
