Throat,back: For the sake of completeness, have a careful examination of your throat by an Otolaryngologist. I also recommend an xray of your thoracic spine(midback). Discuss these suggestions with your physician.

ENT: I agree that ENT and an examination would be helpful. Soothing liquids, voice rest a honey to soothe irritation may be used. The possible causes also include reflux and if you try an over the counter preparation, this may improve your symptoms. Avoid smoke and other irritants.
