Short answer - yes. In fact, it could cause serious life-long damage. IF you are a well-trained professional singer with good vocal technique, you might be able to get away with singing a song or two with technique if the throat is not severely inflamed. If you've got a sore throat, rest the voice (and that means talking as well), get plenty of sleep (the body repairs itself when sleeping), and drink light herbal teas or soft juices. Honey seems to help too. I like grapefruit juice. If your sore throat persists for more than 4 or 5 days, get thyself to a doctor - strep throat seems to be going around these days, or you could have an ear inflection or... in other words, get it checked out. Just one final note - if your throat is sore after singing, you need to take some voice lessons and learn the skills required to protect & support your instrument. Hope that helps H'bird ![[Linked Image]](http://www.justplainfolks.org/ubb/smile.gif) ------------------ Vikki Flawith, Canadian Singer/Songwriter & Voice Teacher This bird sings at: http://www.soundclick.com/vikkiflawith http://www.mixposure.com/victoriaflawith Blog: http://theshysinger-songwriter.blogspot.com/ Are you on MySpace?

"Sometimes reaching a goal earlier than planned is a great achievement. It shows you have worked hard, pushed ahead and made it happen. However, sometimes reaching a goal far past your original deadline, long after you wanted to complete it, and after the accolades you might once have gotten for the achievement are over, it is an even greater achievement. This shows you never gave up, due to adversity, deficit, criticism and those little life detours that end many dreams and goals. In many ways, this is a reason for even more pride!" -Brian Austin Whitney
