I have held sneezes most of my life.
After this sneeze I noticed a severe pain in my throat. I feel it all the time, eating,
drinking, swallowing...but when I sneeze it hurts like heck! When I have to blow my nose and air is forced into that area it really hurts! If I have several sneezes in a row it hurts for a long time after. If I go for a few days with no sneezing or coughing, or blowing my nose then it subsides a little...but it comes back.
