I had my tonsils removed 3 weeks ago and my voice is messed up and I have a singing audition tomorrow. Does anyone know anything that will help soothe my throat???

This sounds crazy but it will make a sore throat fill so much better. Mix you favorite flavor of jello and mix as directed. Drink this while it is warm. Or reheat if needed. The jello is a little thick and seems to coat the throat for a bit and the warmth is soothing.

Aspirin works very quickly to ease the pain. he trick is not to just swallow then where they are absorbed b the stomach. You want to disolve one aspirin every 2 hours or 2 every 4 hours is a spoon with a few drops of water and slowly swallow the mixture so that it is absorbed by the mucus membrane of the throat, not the stomach. If you add a little sugar to the mixture it actuall tastes good. Make sure to take it slowly for best results.

Try gargling w/ warm salt water. I also suck on Vitamin C tablets (500mg) whenever my throat is sore, but as I've not had my tonsils out due to surgery, I'm not going to guarantee you this method will work for you. I does help me, however. Sucrets do absolutely nothing for me, and Chloraseptic tastes exactly that, septic.

When I had a sore throat, I would always have hot tea with honey. Now, that I'm vegan, I don't use honey. You could try hot tea with agave nectar or brown rice syrup. Both are soothing.
Ricola Lemon Mint cough drops are also very good.

Mix salt and baking soda (small amount) in warm water and gargle with it; or try Chloreseptic Spray.
