Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have upper respiratory tract infection. so your fever, weaknesses and sore throat are due to that. You may have cervical lymphnode enlargement due to your infection. It leads to reactive hyperplasia of lymphnode. No need to worry
You should take a course of antibiotics like azithromycin, anti histaminics and paracetamol according to your doctor's advice.
