Ok, so since friday, i've had a soar throat, but yesterday i completely lost my voice, 2day i sound really groggy, and my throat feels like it's on fire. Nothing making it feel better, and i've already taken advil and tylenol 2day along w/ like a million halls cough drops. I really have 2 go 2 school 2morrow, any ideas on how i could get my voice back, and make my throat feel better, plz any suggestions could help me!

i was always told to gargle with salt water, and supposedly you can chew on twizzlers (candy) and it will help it. but then again i havent had a sore throat in a long time.

Use a humidifer to add moisture to the air. Drink plenty of fluids and soothe your throat with hot tea with honey and lemon. Go easy on the cough drops. Save them for coughs. Stand in a hot shower and breathe in the steam. Chicken broth is good for you too. (and a doctor!)

It sounds like strep. Go to the dr. immediately. If it is, you need antibiotics. Try drinking hot tea to soothe the sore throat.

Try Cepacol cough drops they work well. The best thing is tea with lots of lemon and honey its very soothing. Try it luke warm if you think that hot tea will be too hard to swallow.

Chloraseptic spray helps me a lot...I have had a cold for a few days and really bad sore throat.. i bought a combo pack with dayquil/nyquil...it really helps..and then the chloraseptic spray numbs your throat.

you need to have a rapid strep test done. it may be more than just a sore throat.
