Gargling with warm salt water will help kill some of the germs and help take down the swelling, giving you temporary relief. Feel better!

I do know of a couple of home remedies, one is raw onions... eaten or taken in a tea... the other is honey and lemon tea or syrup made in a sauce pan. I have diluted it with water, but the stronger you can take it, the better it is for your sore throat. If this isn't working, then you should get to a dr. It could be an infection of some kind... Don't always depend on home remedies

Ginger tea: boil ginger root hot water or you could put it in your coffee maker perhaps. Any kind of tea, maybe camomile is the best. And then just drink. Beware, ginger tea can be a little spicy.
Another remedy my mom always taught me was to gargle hot salt water. Just warm some water in a mug for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, just enough so you won't burn your throat. Then add about 1/2 a teaspoon or so of salt and mix. Then gargle and spit. Repeat.
Get Well Soon!

Stop swearing and you won't have a swore throat. As for your SORE throat, you may have strep, tonsillitis or an ear infection. Take a pain med and call your doctor in the morning.

Take a Lemon and Slice it in half, take one half of the lemon and place in in the microwave for 15 second or long enough to warm it up a bit (Test the temp on your wrist just like you do with a baby bottle), then when it is at the temp you can handle against your wrist, place the cut side against the spot of oyur throat where it hurts the most. and hold it there til the lemon is cold again.
The acid in the lemon is a natural remedy for germs that seep in through the skin, the PH level of a lemon is excellent for killin those nasty little germies. And the temp is warmn enough to reduce swelling and that irritated scratchy feeling.

If you are running a fever in addition to the other symptoms you have, you should see a Doctor and get a culture, you could have an infection! In the meantime gargle with warm salt water and maybe a few drops of peroxide in it. Drink warm hot tea with lemon and honey for temporary relief. Peace!
