Welcome to healthcaremagic forum, Sore throat may be due to a acute /chronic pharyngitis or laryngitis . pharyngitis may be due to a simple cold / tonsillitis . But laryngitis may be pathology of vocal cord . During the laryngitis vocal cord usually swollen up and on exertion or overuse or a misuse of voice lead to damage of voice box and you will land with a hoarseness of voice. Because you are a singer you should see a ENT specialist as soon as possible to do a indirect laryngoscopy followed by a voice endoscopy or a stroboscopy if needed.
