Granular pharyngitis could be because of poor oral hygiene.You need to take fresh home prepared food only with proper chewing action of teeth and jaw .
After every feed you need to go for mouth wash.Avoid frozen and half cooked food .If not responding with above all then you need to go for throat swab for culture and sensitivity for throat infections if any
