What Causes Sore Throat After Getting A Sunburn On The Legs?

Hi, yesterday I was out on a boat for a couple of hours and ended up getting a really bad sunburn on my legs, feet, face, and chest. Tonight I began to have a very painful sore throat and it feels difficult to breathe because of it. Are my sunburn and sore throat related?

Mostly No.. There is no relation between sun burn and sore throat.. But genital herpes is known to get triggered after sun burn.. Except that I don't think there is much to worry in your condition.
