I have two theories,
1st
start a regime of ibuprofen and cepacol gargling with warm salt water between doses
or
2nd
Slam your hand in a car door.
I've personally used both methods (not intentionally) and they both worked. Of course now I start to feel the cold weather in my knuckles, days before it arrives and it hasn't help my typing skills a bit.

Aspirin or Ibuprofen can help a sore throat immediately. Along with throat lozenges - I think that's about the best way to calm a sore throat. Hot tea with lemon and honey can soothe your throat as well!
Good luck - and enjoy your vacation!

A spoonful of honey, gargle with salt water, perhaps tylenol to ease the pain

I take an anti-inflammatory pain killer (ibuprofen, tylenol, whatever) and have some nice hot tea...then have some sore throat drops and give your voice a rest for a while (no shouting!) Hopefully you will be back to normal in no time!!

Put some honey in tea and drink that a couple of times a day.

Gargle salt water for a minute or two. It sounds gross but it will help almost instantly. Hope i helped. <3 taylor<3

Gargle with warm salt water. Tastes nasty and might burn your sore throat, but it helps.

well the fastest way for sore throat to go is to mix turmeric powder in hot milk and drink it in one gulp..it'll burn first but the sore throat will immediately go away...its a tried and tested ayurvedic remedy
