Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.

After reading your post, it seems that you might behaving infection and needs proper medical care.
An infection of throat can result in fever, body aches, phlegm,etc.

You should get yourself investigated for :-
1. Throat swab culture.
2. Complete Blood Count(CBC).
3. Urine examination.

Antibiotic can be decided according to the reports of the above mentioned investigations.

You can take Paracetamol 500 mg six to eight hourly for relief form fever/body aches.

Also drink lots of pure water daily.
Thanks.
