Throat infection.: This could be a manifestation of your upper respiratory (throat) infection. Could be enlargement of a tonsil on the left side. If you feel that the pain is worsening quickly or that you're having trouble swallowing and/or breathing then you should get to an urgent care center or emergency room for an evaluation.

See below: That is tough to answer without actually being able to see into your mouth and palpate your cervical lymph nodes. If your worried about it, I would go back to be evaluated.
