You do have a muscle under your chin that can make your throat feel sore/tight. Here is a way to release that muscle to give you some freedom back:
Under your chin:
Place your thumbs up under your chin near the front. Feel the muscle between them for as tight as it can be. Press on it and hold. Relax, take a deep breath and exhale and don?t tense up any part of your body. When the muscle starts to release, slowly look upward until your neck is fully extended. Then release the pressure but hold your head there for one minute longer.

I think you are suffering from over fatigue. That gets people once i a while.

Alright about the throat, drink lots of sour juices (natural please) and if you don't have them just water. It's called liquid therapy. And avoid every food that is associated with the word "sweet". Refrain from using your voice too.

Good luck!
