Well mostly i would try wat my mother gave me!. It was boil some chopped onions and add some lemons and tea and drink the whole cup while its hot!. That should work very well because it did with me!. I hope works good for you!.

Try Fisherman's Friend!. They are nasty, gross lozenges but I have heard they work really well!.
