What's a good cure for a sore throat?!


Question: What's a good cure for a sore throat?
Answers:

Sounds disgusting but warm water with a bit of salt in it you hold it in your mouth and gargle with it, and it really does work every single time

my nan was a nurse and still swears by this



As my mum told me, sleep and rest is always the best remedy.
Well, that and these... xD
1. Warm (not hot) tea with honey or lemon
2. Strepsils (medicine, they are lozenges which you suck and available over the counter at a supermarket or chemist)
3. Gargling warm salt water (just mix as much salt as you can in a glass of warm water and GARGLE, NEVER SWALLOW.) I'm not pulling your leg. It might feel uncomfortable but salt kills bacteria making it go away quicker. Google it.
4. Avoid milk. All it does is build up bacteria in your throat, plus it sometimes helps create phylem which is horrible.
5. Lemsip Sinus is good but it tastes revolting.

If it doesn't go away within a week or two, go to a PHARMACIST. Doctors have enough more serious infections to deal with. A pharmacist is trained to know about over-the-counter products and can choose what's right. If they think your throat is that bad they will tell you if it's a good idea to go to the doctor or not.

Hope you get better (if you are ill, maybe you are just wondering for reference)!
