I'm dealing with this swelling near my tonsils for three months now. My ENT believes it's GERD, and I've been on medication for it. But now, there's swelling in my neck area as well. It's really uncomfortable, and I'm wondering what tests I should consider next. Any advice on how to proceed?

View allI've been having a rough time with a throat infection for the last four days after eating some oily food. I don't have a cold or cough, but my throat is really dry and it hurts every time I swallow. There's also a little bit of body pain going on. I took Erythro 250 and Colgin Plus, but they're not helping. What could be going on, and what should I do to feel better?
You can take an antibiotic like Augmentin 625mg twice a day for 5-7 days to target the infection.
