Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hello. Thank you for your question. I'm sorry your son is not well.
The symptoms you describe could be due to a virus, which ultimately resolves on it's own after a few days. However, sore throat and fever could also be due to a bacterial infection and require antibiotics. Sore throats typically come together with stomach pain and/or headache. So this combination is not surprising. I recommend consulting with your doctor so the correct diagnosis can be made and the appropriate treatment plan implemented.
