Hi,
The sore throat is not related to kidney infection and may be due to bacterial infection. As of now she can start on a short course of antibiotics for five to seven days preferably amoxicillin.
Do frequent warm saline gargles and take Acetaminophen for fever and pain. Nothing much to worry and the symptoms will settle in four or five days. Wishing you good health.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussai
