it might take another week before you're completely back to normal and there is no cure for a sore throat/cough-they are viral.
these things might make you feel better and help you get through school though
-take cough drops,vitamin c drops or hard candies in your backpack so suck on throughout the day-these will help stop your cough and soothe your sore throat. ice cubes work good too.
-drink warm tea w/honey in the morning before going to school. this will help your throat. avoid lemon though-the acid will irritate your throat
-avoid milk or dairy products. because these things are usually thick-they clog your throat up more, making it hurt worse and can worsen your cough too.
-gargle with warm salt water (2tsp salt to 8oz water)
-make sure to drink plenty of water or gatorade during the day.
-if you can-ask your parents for some non-drowsy cough medicine that you can take before going to school-this will help too.
hope you feel better soon
When i had a sore throat i put honey and lemon juice together. about half and half then by the spoonfuls let it sit in the back of my throat. Hold it there for awhile before swallowing. it cant not be that artificial flavor stuff either.
You should go to a doctor and have that throat checked. Sore throats can be serious. In extreme cases they can cause kidney failure and brain damage. Remember that these are extreme cases only. Strep/strept throat should be avoided. It is very contagious. Read about it in the www.wickipedia.com. You should know the dangers. A sore throat if advanced can drain energy from your body.
Sleep and push fluids is the best way. Mix honey and eucalyptus together it works. And gargle with salt water.
