If you get cold,there is no need to take antibiotics for that.

Yes should consider taking antibiotics.
Any history of throat pain/irritation/running nose/headache/lethargy/weakness??
Need more detail history for proper evaluation and medication.
If fever persist even after 3 days of taking medication, consider getting RTPCR done
