Thanks for sharing ur concern. From the picture that u have shared theres hyperaemia and redness but no element of bacterial infection. So most likely it’s viral. Do u have any other symptoms like fever, stuffy nose, cough, rashes, abdominal pain or lumps anywhere in the body (esp neck). You may book an online appointment as a more detailed history would be required.

Thank you doctor, there's no any other symptoms it's just a throat as it's been a month and it's not yet recovered so was curious if it's okay to have sore throat for a month and it doesn't require any attention.

WAA you already have taken the antibiotic, so no need to take further. Just start doing gargles with any mouth wash and yake plenty of fluids, also get some antacid for stomach cover.
