Weird throat pains...

For the past week or two I've been having weird pain and pressure in the front of my throat/neck both sides, mostly towards the bottom above where my neck and chest meets.

It started out as pain and swollen lymph nodes and I have a history of getting tonsillitis which is how it felt, so I took a round of antibiotics and that seems better. The pain and tightness in the bottom of my throat is still there. It's worrying me so bad I'm terrified it could be throat canceror something... and I'm 23 and a mom of a 1 year old.

The best way I can describe the pain is kind of the weird pain you feel when you're trying not to cry... and it kind of hurts your throat... that kind of feeling.
