Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
The repeated sore throat can be because of the reactivation of the microorganisms or reduced immunity. Nothing to be panic, consult an ENT surgeon and get it evaluated. Mean while you can take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin and metronidazole combination( if you are not allergic). Get a complete blood investigation done. I hope i have answered your query
