Hello
This could be due to inflammation caused by stuck pill there at Tonsils
another possibility is already inflamed tonsil either due to infection or allergy

In my opinion you should consult a ENT surgeon for examination and confirmation of diagnosis
Meanwhile keep on doing gargles with warm saline water or antiseptic mouth wash

Hope this answers your question
Best wishes
