Here are a few tips to get rid of the common sore throat:
Eat garlic, yes, if you've read any of the other cures on this website you'll find that garlic is the leading treatment to many problems. It is because Garlic contains a antiviral and antibacterial agent. So eat your garlic, it's good for you. You can also get garlic pills, but I prefer the fresh garlic.
Now here is a little drink that will help sooth a sore throat. Add lemon juice (from one lemon) some honey, to a glass of hot water. You'll feel a lot better instantly. I actually like to do this, but I will put the lemon and honey in a chamomile tea.
Gargle with warm salt water.
Once you get rid of the sore throat, get rid of your toothbrush, it may give you the sore throat again, and you don't want to get it back, so time to go to the drugstore and get a new one.

Most of my sore throats come from sinus drainage, so I tend to break out the nasal rinse bottle. It basically helps you shoot large amounts of saltwater up your nose and gets the junk out of your sinuses. The saltwater also covers the back of the throat and acts similar to the idea of gargling. You can buy the bottles at pharmacy counters (they don't sell them out front for some reason, but they aren't prescription).

1) Take Paracetemol (Panadols),
2) Drink lots and lots of water,
3) refrain from eating spicy food, fried food for the time being.
4) Sleep early and rest.
5) Do not shout or talk too much.
After a while, you will be ok.
