If you want to get RID of the pain instantaneously, gargle with a dash of cayenne pepper in warm water (1/4 cup)
Works awesome. No more sore throats.

My doctor always recommends gargling with salt water, but I personally can't stand that... you can also try drinking hot tea--it should feel good going down. If the sore throat is accompanied by a sore throat or doesn't get better within a few days, you might want to call a doctor to get yourself a Strep Test, which requires anitbiotics to treat.
Good luck, and I hope you feel better soon!

Or you can cut a lemon in half squeeze the juice into a cup and add sugar and boiling water that is great for a sore throat and a cold.

take a losenge, sucker, or any type of hard candy and put it in a mug. boil the water and then pour it into the mug. stir around. yum! If you need more flavor or strength use two or three. Drink it when the losenge, sucker, or hard candy is dissovled. Works for me every time! ( even just breathing in the steam is good! )
