SORE THROAT:
A common way to indicate a "sore throat" is to use a loose "G" handshape and move it down the throat twice while using a pained expression.
Don't you feel sorry for me? (Note: Some people just spell S-O-R-E and sign throat.") Others use the "PAIN" sign. See further below.
You might also see this sign used to mean "my throat hurts." Thus is the sign for "pain/hurt" done near the throat.
Suppose someone is a "pain in the neck?" That would be shown by using a single hand twisted into the side of the neck.
"He (or she) is a pain in the neck!"

Notes:You might see someone use a sign for "sore" that looks a lot like they are doing a mutated version of the sign for YEAR where the "S" hands are rotated around each other twice (while kept in close contact). That is a legitimate sign for "sore" and you could sign it that way and then point at your throat -- but I think the ways above are easier and more efficient and thus are "better" choices to use for "sore throat."
