- Gargle with warm salt water (one teaspoon of salt in eight ounces of water). The salt reduces swelling and discomfort.
- If you have postnasal drip, gargle frequently to prevent more throat irritation.
- Drink more fluids to soothe a sore throat. Honey and lemon or weak tea may help.
- Stop smoking and avoid others' smoke.
- Acetaminophen, aspirin, or ibuprofen will relieve pain and reduce fever. Do not give aspirin to children and teens under age 20.
