It is very common for symptoms like a sore throat, body aches, and headaches to linger, especially with viral infections. While paracetamol successfully lowered your temperature, your body is still actively fighting off the virus, which can take several days. I suggest prioritizing rest and staying well-hydrated. You can continue taking paracetamol as needed for pain relief, following the package instructions. If your symptoms worsen, or if you develop trouble swallowing or breathing, please see a doctor for an in-person evaluation.
