Brief Answer:
Suggestive of throat infection.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Ma'am,
Good evening.
I can understand your concern.
If fever is not responding to Crocin, frequent saline water gargles, you may need a course of appropriate antibiotics like Amoxicillin with Clavulanic acid to treat the throat infection.
So, it is advised to visit a doctor for proper checkup and a course of appropriate antibiotic.
Hope this answers your query, however I shall be glad to answer if you have any follow up query.
Regards.
