Personally, gargling with salt water never helped me very much!.
By far my favorite remedy is Slippery Elm bark powder!. It has a soothing quality and coats the throat a little bit to ease inflammation and allow it to heal!. You should be able to buy it at health food stores, sometimes in bulk as loose powder, or they may only have it in capsules!.
You can take a tablespoon or so in some applesauce or oatmeal, and it will really make your throat feel a lot better!. The powder has a mild taste too, so if you mix it into something, you should barely be able to taste it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

the best possible thing you can do - and yes, it may taste a bit gross, but your throat will *immediately* feel better - is to drink WATER & CAYENNE PEPPER!.
it doesn't need to be a lot of water, a half a teaspoon to a teaspoon in a small glass of water will work!. the point is to allow as much cayenne pepper as you can handle to slowly pour down the back of your throat!. it isn't the hottest spice, but it is spicy, so just do as much as you can handle!.
it should immediately cut down on the pain and most likely it will not come back!. i have used cayenne numerous times and it almost always cuts it down from a 10 to a 4 or 5 if not less, and it doesn't get worse again!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Use a teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water and gargle for as long as possilbe, twice a day!.
Try to stick to eating soup and ice-cream and keep your throat warm with a scarf!.
Take a good look in the mirror at your throat, if there are white patches then this is a viral infection and will not go away by these methods!. You will have to get a prescription from the doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Gargling with salt works for me!. I never measured it but I guess I used about 1 tablespoon per glass of warm water!. I believe it's the iodine in the salt that helps soothe the throat!.
Another good one to try is tea with honey!. Honey will coat your throat!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Saltwater works but its pretty disusting to try and gargle!. Make sure you use a lot of salt!. I'd say three parts salt to one part water!. Have you tried Honey!? It coats the throat, tastes good, and works faster than saltwater!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
