Hi mahesh
you probably have a throat infection.this can be caused by cold drinks,extreme cold environment etc but the main cause is a bacterial infection.IF your sore throat doesnt go away in 3-4 days,then see a doctor about getting antibiotics.

Welcome to healthcare magic
Sore throat can be due to chilled water, or icecream, or cold drink taking. Gurgle warm saline water 4 to 5 times and avoid all such chilled foods. If cough,fever, sore throat, body aching continued can consult to any physician.
Wish you a rapid cure

Hi
Welcome to Healthcaremagic Forum

No fan doenst make any ones sick ,but sleeping in too cold room /very cold temp can make one have cold/sore throat.

Taking warm water, warm drinks, will help a lot.
If it doenst help visit a physician or a homeopath.
