Cold or allergies: A sore throat can be the first symptom of a cold, before you start feeling sick with other symptoms. Allergic rhinitis (hay fever) can also give you a sore throat without feeling sick. Finally, there are sexually transmitted diseases that can affect the throat without making you feel sick, including gonorrhea, chlamydia and syphilis.
