Sore throat??

My 13 yr old daughter is complaing of sore throat since this morning said it is burning. Noticed her right cheek was red. No fever..noticed both cheeks now her normal color is back she said her face felt hot earlier but not her body?? Her eyes have no change.She also said she has a blocked feeling in her ear not a pain. Her tongue is usual color. Throat looks red..like it is caused by nasal drip. Her tonsils are large but usually are. Complaing of somewhat blocked and needs to blow..not runny or streaming though. Food or eating makes throat feel better is drinking more but does not make throat feel any better. She is is quiet but not wanting to lie down. She is very impatient and irritable broke up an argument which she went to take a swipe at her sister. She is annoyed when I ask her how she is feeling thru the day. She had an ear and throat infection early December that was treated with antibiotics at the time. Would like to get a head start with some homeopathic remedy. I am having hard time as a mom trying to get the right remedy. In the past I have given her arsenicum for colds and have had great results. Would like some input on this. Personality wise she is not into worrying about how she looks..have to remind her of getting her self together although likes to look nice..when all is don..but not fussy. She is not into physical sports..would rather be reading or drawing. She is not into glitz or gossip..in fact it offends her. She has a love of nature and animals. I don't know how much of this you need to know ...thanks for any input Liz
