Thank you for asking on HealthCareMagic. Most of the fevers in children sore throat in children of this age are caused either due to certain viruses. Such infections are self limiting and recovery occurs spontaneously in 5-7 days irrespective of the use of antibiotics. It is often associated with cough, wheezing, sore throat or pus over tonsils. You need not worry. Just keep the temperature in control by the use of medicines like paracetamol or by cold sponging.
Hope that helps. Feel free to revert back in case of further queries if any.
