Hi,
He had initially a viral cough and now there is secondary throat infection causing pain in swallowing and fever. He might have become week and also anemic because of reduced food intake. For fever, you may continue to give crocin syrup 10-15 mg /kg SOS 6 hourly if there is fever. It will also be a good idea to let your doctor check his throat before starting any antibiotic.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
