I've always heard salt water helps, I'm open to all suggestions. Thanks!

Answer:

The best and fastest way 2 get rid of a sore throat is to drink... Put hot water into a mug, then add a squeeze of lemon juice, this won't taste that great, but it will get rid of your sore throat.

How it works: The lemon juice is very acidic and will sit at the back of the throat and kill the germs. good luk!

Hint: If it is to strong dont add so much lemon juice, if you want you can add some honey to kill the taste.

Gargle with hot (as hot as coffee) water with a lot of salt in it. It is pretty horrible but after you do it a few times it will take away your sore throat. Do it once and then when your throat feels sore again do the gargling again and so on. It works.

Very warm salt water gargles,several times a day.You can use a "cholraseptic" type throat spray and lozenges,that numb the pain. If you start to run a fever greater than 102. degrees,or develop "white spots or patches around the tonsils and throat,its most likely "strep throat",and you will need some antibiotics from the MD. Take care. SW RNP

try stretching your throat backwards. sometimes you can stop a cold from starting. stand up and do a gentle backbend and lean your head back as far as it will go and hold for 10 seconds. you could also lean off the edge of a bed for a minute.

suck on a zinc tablet. tastes bad, works good. saltwater gargle, warm liquids. saltwater nasal rinse can help if allergic drainage is causing the problem.
