Hello,

Thank you for choosing DoctorSpring.

You appear to have a Upper respiratory tract infection (specifically tonsillopharyngitis ). There is a 50-50 chance that the infective agent in being a virus or bacteria. If it is viral upper respiratory tract infection no specific treatment is indicated and it should resolve naturally. However if the etiology is bacterial you will require a course of antibiotics. From your current symptoms it is difficult to reach a conclusion.

For now you can judiciously observe your symptoms for 24-48 hours. Meanwhile I recommend the following.

1. Continue Paracetamol and Sudafed.
2. Betadine gargle (OTC in some locations). Dilute it with water as per instructions . Gargle it twice a day in mild warm water. If Betadine is not available you can use warm saline water for gargling
3. Steam inhalation twice a day.

If the symptoms are resolving and if you feel better then you can skip the Doctors consultation. But if in 24-48 hours if the symptoms intensify or if there are new symptoms you will need medical help / consultation.

Hope this helps
Feel free to ask followups
Thank you
