why would ice cream hurt your throat?

Question

I've had a slight headache off and on the past few days and a slight sore throat with my glands partily enlarged now I just sat down to have some ice cream and why would ice cream hurt your throat cold things are supposed to help right?

Answer 1

Cold things help...I dont think dairy things help. Try popcicles instead of icecream

Answer 2

The icecream wouldn't be hurting your throat directly. It would be hurting your SORE throat because you're starting to get sick. Icecream contains a lot of sugars which the bacteria in your body feed on, therefore increasing the count of bacteria therefore indirectly making icecream the cause of a more serious sore throat.

p.s. drink a lot of water, that will help flush the germs out.

Answer 3

The trick is to shop your throat lubricated, regular sips of non-alcoholic fluid, smooth meals like ice cream, yogurt, mousses and so on, soups and so on. avoid dry, crispy meals. some human beings like honey of their fluids notwithstanding the fluid itself is the biggest. in case you are able to't drink then medicated pastilles from the chemist are solid or sugar loose chewing gum to stimulate your salivary glands. try now to not communicate too a lot, all being properly you'd be advantageous in an afternoon or 2.

Answer 4

ice creams.. are very rich in sugar that provide a lot of food for bacteria...

and bacteria are much likely to survive under cold conditions... that if the body is in fever... bacterias oftenly die by greater chances because warmth can inhibit their reproduction...

What i suggest by using home remedies...

Gargle a glass of warm water with 2tbsp salt... gargle it specially on the area of inflammation...

now.. if u see any whitish pustules on your throat... go get a doctor and ask for an antibiotic...

Answer 5
