Hi,

I think related to your symptoms, sore throat and moderate fever, this could be an viral (flu) situation. For the moment you have to use only some herbal remedies for the sore throat and ibuprofen if the fever is higher. But if your symptoms persist more than 4-5 you should meet a doctor to make an physical examination and some lab examination to exclude bacterial complications.

I hope my answer help you. Let me know if I can assist you further. I wish a quick recovery.

Regards,
Dr. Monika Dede
