Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The throat infection can be because of the bacterial infection. Nothing to be panic, consult an oral physician and get it evaluated. Mean while you can take a course of antibiotics like azithromycin(if you are not allergic). Do saline gargling.
I hope I have answered your query, take care.
