Sore throat from casting?

It is a known fact that kids are germ bombs!
Some wood smoke is bad but it depends on the wood. Saw dust is a whole lot worse. In general wood smoke is 90% less dangerous then a cigarette.

throat gets dry while casting

Don't think it's the heat off the pot but your breathing rate when casting - concentration and rapid breathing, probably out your mouth instead of your nose. I noticed it too. You also probably have a funny taste in your mouth.

Could be but I generally breath out of my mouth as the nose dosn't work to good.
