I have a really bad sore throat had it for like 2 days. Every morning i wake up its worse! Its hard to swallow?

fluids as well as foods. Its a scratchy/ slight burning feeling. I took hall cough drops, it wont soothe the pain. I even took some Nyquil stuff that was for cough and irratiion to the throat. What can I do to cure this pain and what kind of sore throat may I might have?
