[|AI|]  Yes, it can very well be a viral infection. The sore throat and nose congestion along with the aches and pains points out to a viral organism causing the symptoms. Rashes are also part of a classical viral origin flu. Since you don't have fever you need not worry much. Viral infections usually get resolved on its own. Use warm salt water gargle to help with the sore throat and steam inhalation will help with the congestion. Most probably the cough is due to the flow of your nasal secretions towards your throat. As for the stomach cramps it might be due to the intake of antibiotics resulting in gastritis. Symptomatic relief can also be provided by certain anti histamines. I hope I answered your query in a satisfactory manner. Thank you.
