hey i rarely do exercise but i'm in good shape (but bad condition of course) and everyday I walk to college which is like 4 mins away and I normally get sore throat on my way, the weather is normal (not cold, we are usually like at 30ºC more or less).
I'm an 18 y/o girl. I'm diagnosed with depression and constantly are stressed and worried and sad. I don't know if that is affecting for me to get that.
I've googled it but I don't find anything :( only things about getting it when exercising but I'm not exercising dammit
SO has anybody else had it? or should I take that "walking" as if I were exercising since I don't do any of it?

sorry if I have bad English, I'm not a native speaker

    I think I know what that is. I have similar symptoms. It's probably spasmophilia or a result of prolongued anxiety. It can lead to shortness of breath, sore throat, neck pain, stomach pain, reflux, heart trouble (like beating too fast) dizziness, shooting pain, headaches and many more. Especially when it's a long term mental condition that stresses your body, it affects you gradually more. Search for GAD (generalized anxiety disorder) and perhaps GERD (Gastroesophageal reflux disease). If you have those symptoms then it's a common thing. I also have them. It's treatable but you need years of relaxation and recovery as well as the conditions to exit your depression. Wandering thoughts will always remain, but the general mental health can be improved and then many other health improvements will follow. At some point the exposure can affect you seriously, generating permanent pains and a dead end in which you keep beig stressed by not being able to relieve the stress and the pain. Do not go that far, I am in this position and I guarantee you don't want that. Do whatever you can to heal yourself ASAP. Best of luck and reply if you want to talk more about it.

    Walking IS exercising! Are you exposed to pollution during your walk to college?

        Then you need to get yourself an anti-pollution mask
