Answers: because i need to buy the right medican today.
I use Lemon Water (fresh lemon juice as strong as you can handle in water) until the sore throat is gone. If you eat or drink anything else it will take longer.
Most sore throats I have used this for are gone in a day or two.
Lemon Water rests the body, brakes up the mucus that is the cause of the sore throat, rebuilds the stomach sodium lining.
Good Luck!
I just use Advil Liquigels. I don't like taking cold medicine and the Advil makes it so I don't feel my sore throat for around 6 hours. Works fast too.
I read this on http://www.mercola.com and it works great:
Take half a capful of hydrogen peroxide and put it in your ear. You will need to lie down on your side to do this. If it foams, leave it in till it stops. Then do the other side.
Also, gargle with the peroxide.
Repeat in a few hours. This makes a sore throat go away immediately. It also can stop a cold or lessen the severity of one.
If you have it (most don't) use colloidal silver to gargle. This works great as well.
We use Grapefruit Seed Extract - liquid - 10 drops in 6 oz of water, gargle, swallow. Chase with a strongly flavored 100% juice, like grapefruit or pineapple - since the GSE is rather stong tasting.
We use that for all sore throats - whether viral, bacterial, fungal or unknown. It has never let us down. 99% of the time, just once is all that is required. If not, we do 4-6 hours until throat is fully recovered, then another 24 hours after to make sure whatever it was is dead.
You can find it at health food stores or online at http://www.iherb.com (not affiliated, just the best price adn good service).
I drink this 3 times a day as soon as I feel a sore throat coming on. it helps with the congestion and the hot fumes are great to breathe in.
2 cups water
3 Tbspn Apple cider vinegar
3 Tbspn honey
3 Tbspn lemon juice
Heat up in saucepan to as hot as you can drink it.
With Chinese medicine, we press acu-points and use essential oils to prevent and help sore throat. There are points on the hands and on the feet too. The indentation area between you thumb and pointing finger is the best point for sore throat, on both of the hands. You may find it sore when you press because you have a sore throat. Keep pressing the points, you will feel the relief. Also it is the best if you have someone else do it for you :)
Hope you fee better soon.

An associate of mine, an ENT Physician told me that the best remedy for sore throat is actually a Tums tablet that you let slowly dissolve in your mouth. He said that anything with Menthol is bad and can actually make things worse such as Laryngitis.
Hope this helps.
PS skip the peroxide ideas.
I've answered many times with same response, because I did it and it worked instantly:
Gargle with a 1/4 cup warm water, and a dash of cayenne pepper. No more sore throat!
