Severe Pain

I have a horrible cavity that need to be taken care of but we do not have the funds as my husband lost his job. I noticed a lump on the left side of my throat Thursday and about 4 or 5 hrs later I became ver I'll with aches and chills. Now, my throat is sore, my ear hurts and my mouth is burning. I wouldn't be surprised if it was swollen shut tomorrow being that I can't open it too much now. The lumps about quarter size now and is extremely tender. The other problem I run into is that both GOP wisdom are giving me heck and a swollen extreme. It's tender and really meaty on top. Any suggestions? How can I ease the pain & how serious does this sound?

Change of problem-- I noticed my throat felt like it was closing so I looked in the mirror and my tonsils have white pus streaks and the back of my throat has white streaks... Strep throat??
