Drink a cup of hot tea with honey and maybe even some lemon. Drink water and fluids like that to keep dehydrated.. Also suck on hard candies or things of that nature to keep moisture in your throat. Good lcuk and get better soon!

Gargle with little hotter then luke warm salt water 3 times a day for 3-5 days.
Do it for few mins may be with half a glass of salt water. You should feel the heat on your throat when you do it.

It should cure. But if it has been already there for sometime then it is better to take antibiotic to cure it.

It depends how bad is the sore throat, if you could see if there is any inflammation deep inside the throat.

Usually in my case because of "heaty" condition due to food intake or prolonged speech.

I would avoid very cold drinks or hot and spicy food.

Each morning before you brush your teeth or eat anything, try to drink as much water as possible and finish it with a teaspoon of honey.

Another traditional method used by my ancestors, they would soak tamarind in a glass of water, leave it overnight and drink it in the morning. If you don't like the sour taste, you could add sweetner. But never drink it with ice.

Good luck!

Answer 4

Take Tylenol, drink water, and time.

Oh yeah, it also depends of how bad of a sore throat it is. Would it be like a regular sore throat, or strep?

Answer 5

gargle with salt water, if you can stand it... my husband actually uses mouthwash to gargle with, but I can't stand it... and hydrogen peroxide works, because it kills on contatc all microbs .. except you have to be very careful not to ingest...
Other milder cures are honey and vinnegar 2 TBSP of honey mixed with 2 TBSP apple cider vinnegar, and add warm water or herbal tea.. mix, and drink 3 times a day at least...
