Sore Throat Symptoms Very Concerned

About two weeks ago i was sick with the flu, i had a bad cough, high fever, and chills but no sore throat at all.I cleared up fine and i've been healthy except for a little fatigue and slight chills  for two weeks since. On friday the 7th i played some serious basketball and felt fine afterwards. To my surprise i awoke the next morning with a sore throat, green mucus with traces of blood in it and i had gooey grey eye crust in the corners of my eye and on my eyelids. The sore throat was literally like ive never felt before. It hurt to speak and even to swallow my own saliva.the first few days i tried drinking tea with hone but the only thing that made it feel any better was icy cold fluids.A week and a day later its still a tad bit sore but no where near as much as last week.The bloody mucus is gone and gooey eye crust is not as prevelant. I'm very concerned becuase i usually get sick once or twice a year but NEVER in the same month and this bad. Ive never had a sore throat with no cough accompanying it and ive most definetly woke up with greyish wet goo on my eyelids and in the corners of my eye instead of the normal dry crusty stuff. I would greatly appreciate it if you could even venture a guess as to what this was.

if you have green mucous and eye crude my guess is its probably some sort of bacterial infection. see a doctor and you can get an antibiotic for it.
