Brief Answer:
Flu can cause sore throat

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

Sore throat is a common symptom of a viral infection or flu. Taking count that you don't have high temperatures means that it is not tonsillitis or infection of the tonsils.
You can send a photo of the throat on reports for me.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
