My Doc gave me antibiotics when i had these similar kind of symptoms. you seem to be sufferiong from infection which is causing fever. paracetamol for fever, antibiotics for infection!
SORE THROAT IS INDICATIVE OF INVASIVE INFECTION,A BROAD SPECTRUM ANTI BIOTIC LIKE CIPROFLOXACIN WITH ANTIHISTAMINE LIKE LEVO CETRIZINE OR FORMULATION LIKE SINAREST CAN USUALLY HELP.IF PROBLEM IS RECURRING OR CHRONIC THROAT SWAB CULTURE IS INDICATED.
THE ANTIBIOTICS PLAY A MOJOR ROLE NOT ONLY IN CURING SORE THROAT BUT ALSO REDUCES RISK OF REHUMATIC HEART DISEASE WHICH CAN MANIFEST FROM SORE THROAT OR PHYRANGITIS.,THE FACT NOT KNOWN TO MANY COMMAN PEOPLE.
