Around Metro Atlanta, there is a pre-season flu going around and I have it. I have tried Vicks VapoRub and cough drops. Any other suggestions?

Lemon tea made from fresh lemons (really it's just hot lemonade). The vitamin C and the warm liquid helps bring relief to the throat.
If you throat is sore, you could have strep throat or another infection that needs a doctor's attention.

Gargle hot salty water. Its gonna taste like s**t but just try to do it as long as possible. Also drink lots of tea and water and eat more fruit and veggies than normal. Maybe you could rid your body of the flu before it actually attacks your body.

Try warm salt water gargle. If it dosnt get better you may want to see your doctor. Could be strep throat or a bad infection.
