Hello,

As per your history, it may be due to tonsillitis.

For that, you can take tablet acetaminophen.

Continue steam inhalation and Betadine gargle.

You may require antibiotics azithromycin after consultation.

Keep your self hydrated. Maintain proper hygiene.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
