I have a sore throat and a pretty bad cough, luckily today is Yom Kippur, so no school! But tomorrow I have to go to school and I want to cure my throat soon. How do I do so in one day, without medicine?

Drink plenty of clear fluids (ginger ale and water). These fluids will make you urinate more frequently but it will loosen any phlegm (mucus) that may be associated with your cold. Drink orange juice for Vitamin C (it's known to aid and assistance the cold/flu). Get plenty of rest. Drink some hot black tea with honey and lemon, to coat your throat and keep you from coughing so much. Take some Tylenol for fever and headache or minor body aches. Finally, tell yourself that your too busy to be sick and where your mind is, your body is forced to follow. Believe it!

"Medicine" -- "2. something that alleviates symptoms of a disease" (Princeton)
In other words, your question is somewhat of an oxymoron. Either you want a medicine for your symptoms or you don't.
On top of that, if anyone knew how to cure the common cold and its associated pharyngitis (sore throat) then (well, I don't actually know what would happen then; it's almost unimaginable).

Hello,
Try Drinking warm Tea, with Lemon and Honey. And Gargle with Warm Salt water or a mixture of Hydroden Peroxide and Warm Water. Dont Talk if you dont have to, and you should feel better in the morning. Also, Chocolate (like hersey's with out Almonds, or those little kisses) are good to suck on, and eat... Plus who dosent like chocolate???
Good Luck,

There is a product called Airborne that gets the job done, it contains natural ingredients and works well. Another way is to drink two shots of wheat grass juice a day (or more). You can get wheat grass at most places that make smoothies and juice.
