Viral infection : It sounds like viral upper respiratory infection. Paracetamol, rest , hot fluids like soups work best . If getting rashes , vomiting, feeling short of breath or chest pain then please see your doctor.

Cold?: Sounds like a viral syndrome. Would treat with symptomatic fixes. Lots of fluids and stay hydrated. Ice blocks are perfect for this. Water, milk, juice, sports drinks are all good. As for the fever it is ok to alternate pamol every 6 hours with ibuprofen every 8 hours. Decongestants and anti-histamines will help with the upper resp symptoms. Rest chicken soups are also good. See Dr if not better in a few days
