You may not feel you are straining your voice, but the sore throat is a clue that something is wrong. If it happens often and over a long period of time, vocal strain is probably the reason, rather than a one-time sickness. The solution, of course, is to learn less stressful ways to sing. That usually means finding a good voice teacher or choral director who can work with you individually. Good luck!
