I performed oral sex and developed a sore throat next day. is this bad?

Depends: If swallowing of semen occurred, this can lower your immune systems response (since there are immunosuppressants in semen) and if a illness was waiting, it could have had the chance to start since the immune system could have been temporarily suppressed.
