Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
The soreness in the gums and throat associated with fever can be because of the herpes simplex virus infection. Nothing to be panic, consult an oral physician and get it evaluated. Mean while you can take symptomatic treatment like topical analgesic like lignocaine, topical analgesic like choline salicylate. Do saline gargling, it is a self limiting condition. Nothing to worry.
I hope i have answered your query. Take care.
