I have laryngitis, need to be better by Tuesday! Anyone know of quick home remedies?

I'm a young teen, and have laryngitis. I can just barely talk in my normal voice, not even close to being able to sing though. The reason I'm mentioning singing is because I have voice lessons on Tuesday with the bestestestest coolest voice teacher in the world Meg, and I really don't want to miss it because it's only my third lesson.

For the past few days, I have experienced pain when swallowing, and a mild sore throat when talking. Today I woke up and I could only speak in a whisper, but now I can just barely talk. Also, I don't feel ill besides my throat.

My ex-music teacher (I had her in elementary) suggests 1 cup apple cider, 1 tbs apple cider vinegar, 1 tbs oney, combine all ingridents, heat to boiling and sip like tea. Does that sound like it would cure my laryngitis? If anyone else has any tips or little things that could help, they would be very appreciated.

Laryngitis is another word for a sore throat. First you should rest your voice. Too much using of your larynx, increases the inflammation. dont talk, sing or shout for a couple of days. Gargle with hot water to which turmeric powder is added. Do this atleast 4 times a day. You should feel better.
I am putting a few home remedies which may help you.

* Garlic is the most important remedy for sore throat. Chew some garlic pieces.
* Add lemon juice (from one lemon) some honey, to a glass of hot water. Drink this. It will give immediate relief from pain.
* Gargle with warm salt water. It is the best old age home remedy.
* Increase your liquid intake and make sure your house is humidified properly.
* Cut a lemon into 2 pieces. Take one piece and put some salt and black pepper on it, press with a knife so that salt-pepper penetrates into the lime. Put the lemon on heat to make it warm. Slowly lick this lemon squeezing it until no juice remains. Do it 2-3 times a day.
* Chives and scallions are helpful for a soar throat when simmered in water for 5 minutes. Drink as a tea.
