Thanks for asking in healthcaremagic forum
Normal temperature is plus or minus 0.6 degree from 37'C. With this your temperature is within normal limits and you need not do any thing.
But any infection/inflammation can cause increase in body temperature including your sore throat.
So, please gargle with salt water and have plenty of fluids if you have it now.
All the best.
