Why is my severe left-sided throat pain, which makes it difficult to swallow food and water, returning despite temporary relief from amoxicillin and Combiflam, and what short-term medication can I take to treat it?

It is common for symptoms to return if the initial course of amoxicillin didn't fully clear the infection, or if the cause is viral. Since you are finding it hard to swallow water, it is very important to see a doctor promptly to check for any localized swelling. In the short term, you can continue using paracetamol or ibuprofen (the active ingredients in Combiflam) for pain relief, and try warm salt water gargles. Please stay hydrated with small sips of water and get evaluated soon so you can feel better.
