How To Treat Sore Throat With Body Pain And Headache?

the past 3 days I've had a sore throat and I went to the doctor and they said it's not strep but it's either just a virus or mono but too early to tell. my sore throat is gone but now I have body aches all over and I have a sharp pain when I inhale and bad headaches for the last 2 days. should I go back in? what could it be? I don't smoke or anything like that and I'm a 16 year old female
