What Causes Persistent Sore Throat With Feeling Of Lump In It?

I have had a persistent sore throat with the feeling of an egg in my throat for about a week. Every time I raise my voice (teacher and have 2 kids), it gets worse. Tea helps but I can t seem to have it go away. Irritation or infection? Thoughts? A lot of stress going on right now. Non smoker, 35 yrs old
