Hi,
Welcome to Hcm,
There is a possibility of viral infection in your child. Best thing you doing is that you already started treatment for throat infection. However recurrence of fever with other symptoms are suggestive of a viral illness similar to dengue. Pls continue same treatment but pay increased attention on his fluid intake. He should take as much fluid as he can. If symptoms doesn't subside in next 24 hrs, you need to get his blood tested and test for dengue also. Take care.
