HI, thanks for using Chat Doctor The fever can last a few days in a viral infection, so it is not unusual that it is still present. The sore throat and cough indicate that you probably have an upper respiratory tract infection (common cold). Fluids, rest, paracetamol and cough and cold medications would help. It can normally take 1 to 2 weeks for resolution. I hope this helps
