Answer 2

There is no simple way of curing a sore throat. However there are different methods that you can try to try and ease the pain.
After you have done a salt water gargle, try to keep your throat covered for at least 15 mins.
You can also try to take a tablespoon full of honey and black pepper - warm the spoon a little.
Try to take a foot bath with both lukewarm and cold water.

Answer 3

Drop[ a brick on your toe .... and all of a sudden, your throat doesn't hurt as much

Just kidding -
my first thoughts were the gargling salt water and the honey and lemon in warm water ...
.
But if they don't work, you may need a docter to locate the cause of the problem. He may give you anti-biotics or find it is a symptom for something wrong in another part of your body ... like that now swollen toe

Answer 4
