poof

gargle saltwater (1/4 tsp salt in warm water) or warm gatorade. Take something for the cough like Delsym

Get some Zicam swabs. All of your symptoms will disappear.

Chloroseptic throat spray is very good, it won't get rid of the infection but it will anesthetize the inflamed area very effectively.
It's not cheap and you only get a tiny bottle but it works.

For hurting throat - besides all the namby-pamby stuff like honey and lemon tea or gargling with salt water... you can get serious numbing from spraying with Chloraseptic and using Fisherman's Friend lozenges. They both taste foul and the latter will practically make your whole head go numb. You won't like either, but they both work if you're desperate to be rid of the pain.

On the cough - to just stop the cough for a short time, look for cough control syrup that states on the label that it's a suppressant.

If you have junk in your chest, you want to keep that fluid so it doesn't settle in more, and you can do that by keeping up your fluid intake and taking Mucinex (non-druggy, just acts on mucus).

But to really address the cough, see your doctor. Coughs have different causes, some serious. If you have something more serious like bronchitis or pneumonia, all the over the counter stuff and home remedies won't help. They will just buy you time til your doctor can see you and make sure you don't get worse.

Take care, and hope you feel better!

I had the same problem a few weeks ago and I tried a home remedy that actually worked!! It's very simple to make and I instantly felt the difference!!

Make yourself some hot chamomile tea, add lemon and honey to taste and voala! It really worked for me and the sore throat and cough went away.

I am not much a believer of home remedies, but this one really worked. Try it and I hope it works for you too.

Take some aspirin with warm water, lay in bed and take a nap. Try not to cough. See the doctor as soon as you can. Where is your mom? If she is not at home, call her on her cell phone to let her know you are sick so when she comes home she can arrange for you to see the doctor.

Sorry I do not know any home remedies because I always go straight at buying the cough medicine from the pharmacy.

take cough spray i use Vicks and itll go away! or take the liquid one you have to drink well I HOPE YOU GETTER WELL SOON!!!
