Cough, a blocked or runny nose and feverishness can occur with respiratory infections, but four days of recurring fever needs reassessment if it is continuing. An evening pattern alone does not identify the cause.
Next Steps
Record your measured temperature and arrange a physician review if fever is still present or symptoms are not improving. Rest, drink fluids regularly and avoid smoking. Bring details of any medicines already taken rather than starting an antibiotic yourself.
Health Tips
Seek urgent care for breathlessness, chest pain, coughing blood, confusion, marked weakness or inability to maintain fluids.

An evening predominant mild fever with a dry cough and a blocked, runny nose for four days fits a usual viral cold or flu. These infections typically peak for three to five days and then start easing on their own.
Next Steps
Rest well, keep yourself hydrated with water and warm fluids, and take paracetamol if the fever feels uncomfortable. Steam inhalation a couple of times a day can help loosen the blocked nose.
Health Tips
See a physician if your fever climbs higher, lasts beyond seven days, or you start feeling breathless or unusually weak.
