I was given a steroid shot and numbing meds for a viral throat that also had ulcers in the throat now i cant even swallow feeling dehydrated?

Could be strep: throat or even mono. If you have difficulty swallowing, or even worse opening your mouth, it could mean abscess. You should go back to your doctor if you develop these symptoms.
