For pain management, I would suggest tylenol of ibuprofen, as well as rinsing and gargling warm salt water. Make the water VERY hot at first, (so that the salt will completely disolve,) put in about a teaspon of salt per 1 glass of water. Mix it around until the salt granules have mixed completely with the water. Then rinse your throat.
Chicken Broth, Apple Juice, hard candies, (butterscotch worked for me,)
I liked the tylenol sore throat. the cool burst type.
It didn't taste the best (liquid), but the feeling afterward was really good.
the best thing to take is something like a strepsil which will sooth the throat a great deal
drinking cool water also relieves the pain
also check your pharmacy for cough syrups which also sooth the throat pain
after a few days it should clear up :D
Try a lemon and water drink. Squeeze some fresh lemon juice, or use bottled juice, and combine with water. Add some honey. Heating the drink with the honey is most effective.
Try making hot tea. Add a good dash of lemon juice and honey. Inhale the vapors while drinking the tea.
Gargle with warm salt water (1 teaspoon of salt per glass of water).
Use an over the counter pain reliever such as acetaminophen, ibuprofen or naproxen, if medically indicated.
Try using throat lozenges or hard candy.
Try sucking on popsicles.
Use a humidifier during the day. Use a humidifier in the bedroom at night.
Stop talking or singing temporarily. Give your voice a rest if you have been a chatterbox or if you have been singing in a choir or repetitively and your throat feels strained. Continuing to talk or sing when your throat is sore can be damaging to the voice.
Avoid pollution. Where the air is bad, try to keep away from it or go somewhere to have a break from it if you live in the midst of it. Stay indoors during smog days but remember that indoor air pollution can be even worse, so air the house when the smog has gone.
Seek treatment for the blues. If you are really down, depressed or anxious, a sore throat can be one symptom that arises, telling you to slow down and seek healing. Visit the doctor quickly.
WarningsSeek medical help if the condition does not improve.
Seek medical help if there is a fever present, swollen glands or patches of white forming in the throat. These maybe signs of strep throat.
