try Tylenol sore throat.
stay away from cold foods and drinks
try inhaling hot mist/steam. (turn on the shower on the hottest and close the door and window to the bathroom, the room should fill with steam in under 5 minutes. sit and inhale through your mouth. if you can sit in the shower and avoid the water you will get the most of the steam - alternatively, you can go to your local pharmacy and get a "mister" for under $50)
feel better!

Sadly, there's not much you can do for a sore throat besides the stuff they sell in stores.. at least not without doing something illegal, lol
Hope you feel better :}

They make a throat spray that has numbing stuff in it. A few sprays on the back of your throat and you won't feel anything. You can find it over the counter in the medicine aisle.

Any pain killer will give you enough relief to sleep.
I also rinse with listerine before I go to bed because it
kills all the bacteria in your throat and that's part of
what is causing the pain.

gargle 3-4 times a day with warm salted water; use chlorseptic spray and Aleve or Tylenol until it clears

Gargle with warm salt water about every half hour.
