A sore throat has a litany of possible causes, including an allergy, air pollution, dry air or exposure to tobacco smoke.
The culprit also may be a virus, notably the common cold.

- Coughing and sneezing.
- Watery eyes.
- A mild headache and general body aches.
- Runny nose.
- A fever of less than 102 degrees Fahrenheit.
