Pharyngitis: Sounds like you might have a throat infection. You should go to your doctor to get a rapid strep test as well as a full examination to determine the appropriate treatment. The headache can be related to it.

Sore throat: If you have a significantly sore throat w swollen tonsils / lymph nodes – see your medical provider & get a streph throat test & culture. Saltwater gargles are very helpful. Mix a teaspoon of salt in 8 oz of warm water – gargle with this several times a day. You can gargle with aloe vera juice a couple of times per day. A mixture of chamomile tea with honey & a small amount of lemon juice is good.
