Gargle with warm salt water. About half a cup of warm water and 1 teaspoon of salt stirred in. This is temporary though. The best throat lozenge is "Cepacol" brand because it numbs your throat. If it's severe, filled with pus or you develop a fever or throw up, see a doctor as it may be strep throat.

I know people will freak out about this but a sore throat usually accompany earaches. Once when I had an earache I warmed up some aloe vera gel and put it in my ear at night. It not only seemed to numb the pain but it drained down the back of my throat where gargling just can't reach and stopped the sore throat. It worked for me. Remember, strep needed antibiotics though.

Get some warm water add a little salt and gargle with it for about 30 seconds every couple of hours. If that does not work try Steri/sol Therapeutic Oral Rinse.

Gargling with Listerine works well for me and also water with table salt. Do not swallow either one. I do this every hour for 4 hours. It's seem to work for me

Drink tea with lots of lemon in it and gargle with hot water and salt solution.

Just drink LOTS of tea and have a scarf around your neck. Works every time.
