THROAT HURTS SO BAD PLEASE HELP?!!?!


Question: THROAT HURTS SO BAD PLEASE HELP?!!?
Ok I have a horrible sore throat. I woke up in the middle of the night and had it. It hurt so bad I kept on getting up all night. It stings and burns and my throats really red. It hurts really really bad if I swallow. It's killing me! It's do annoying! Last night I went he the beach ate ice cream and before bed lemonade. Do you guys have some tips to ease the pain? PLEASE

Answers:

Drink plenty of water, fruit juices with no added sugar, suck on ice, warm tea, sprite,seven-up,sierra mist. But let it sit for a few minutes,honey, and throat lozenges,chloraseptics products claim they numb the pain. If you can get away from not taking antibiotics don't take them. We over use them and nobody ever finish the cycle. Try to see your doctor. Going to the Emergency may be a six hour wait. Though you are sick you are considered a non life threatening emergency and you will be seen on a space available basis.

Take tylenol with an anti-inflammatory (aspirin, ibuprofen or naproxen). Or a mixed product like Anacin or Excedrin.

Go to a doc and get antibiotics.

Crank up the heat at home to dry up your nose without drugs.Post nasal drip makes the cough worse.

Try drinking honey lemon tea.

Salty foods and perfumes (esp. cinnamon) seem to make the cough worse.

Antibiotics ASAP is best...



It could be strep throat. If it is, nothing will make it go away or get better until you go to the doctor and get some antibiotics. It's contagious so don't go kissing anyone.

had strep throat over Xmas



well ive heard that if you mix lemon juice, salt and sugar together and have a few sips every hour or so it should get better pretty quick. might be worth a try. good luck!
