What are the best cures for sore throats? Mine is aching so bad......?
Answers:
Rftdwg gave you the advice I was about to: gargle with warm salt water. It really does help. You can also buy products like Chloraseptic at the drug store. You spray it on your throat and it numbs it for a while.
If you're running a temp, have white spots on the back of your throat indicating strep, or it keeps up for more than three days, call your doctor.
drink tea with honey
you can also add pieces of garlic and ginger
boil all of these ingredients together and then strain it and drink the tea trust me it helps
Salt water gargles.
Warm drinks, especially tea with lemon and honey.
If you have a fever you may also have an infection, you may want to see your doctor. If it persists or worsens tomorrow than a day or two get it checked out
just mix 2 spoons honey with 1 spoon squeezed ginger, have this mixture for about 3 times in a day
u'll feel much better at then end of the day
n after 2 days it'll be completely gone
1) see a doctor
2) gargle with warm salt water
3) bed rest
4) warm soup
5) give it time for your body to fight off the cold

This is my family cure. My Grandma would always tell us to do this. Take a washcloth and get it wet, get out most of the water, fold it in thirds so it is a long rectangle. Then put that washcloth in the freezer for about a half hour. Take it out and bend it around your throat. Take a sock (wool is best) and pin that over the washcloth to keep it in place. Now go lay down and watch TV or something. It will be freezing, then cold, then just wet. All of that helps in soothing a sore throat. This works best if you do it before bed and leave it on all night.
drink every hour.
paracetamol.
hot water mixed with honey.
zinc tablets.
The nastiest thing I ever drank was apple cider vinegar tea. You put all this stuff in some hot Echinacea tea.
3 TB Apple Cider Vinegar
3 TB lemon juice, fresh squeezed if possible
2 TB honey
ginger
then you garggle every swallow you take. It has cleared out the worst of things pretty fast. One time it cleared things up overnight. remember this is pretty nasty stuff but well worth it.
here's an article on apple cider vinegar:

As the other posters said, if you have a fever, white spots in your throat, or if your sore throat persists more than three days, see your doctor!
In the meantime, to soothe your throat, try this:
Get some lemon tea such as lemon zinger.
Put the tea bag in a big mug, then drop in a cough drop. (I recommend Robitussin honey & lemon. Make sure it has menthol or eucalyptus in it.)
Pour boiling water into the mug, let it steep five minutes, stir.
Add at least 2 tsp honey.
Drink this while very hot.
It does a good job of soothing the throat.
Ever tried a little something called COUGH DROPS?
Native American remedy:
Honey w/ Citrus. heat it up if u like..add some booze if u need to get to sleep. Of course the good old fashioned "salt gargle" also works.
Ice cream also helps. Has to be natural like Breyers...not that puff stuff w/ artificial ingredients! Think about it..what's ice cream made from SUGAR, SALT, MILK.
CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP
Gargle with warm salt water.
It could happen that you have parasites in your body.
See a doctor, perhaps he will medicate antibiotic to kill staphylococcus or any others little animals living into the throat.
When it happens to me, I mix 6 drops of creosote and half glass of water and gargle several times and kill all the trouble.
Take one glass of water mix it with1tsp pepper, 1tsp turmeric, 1tsp garlic, 1tsp small onion, 1tsp ginger and 1tsp of sugar. Boil it until it becomes 1/2 glass, drink it while it is warm. More remedies available at http://ailments.in/sorethroat.html...
Try an old fashion remedy given to me by my grandmother it always work. Gargle with salt water & flour 3 - 4 times a day. You can also use throat lozengers after, these numb your throat. Remember this could be tonsilitis so if the pain persists consult your doctor, you may need antibiotics.
Try boiled ginger root. Crush 2-inch ginger and boil it in a two liters water for 20 minutes.
You can drink the mixture with sugar and milk or just sugar. One glass in the morning and one at night time.
Avoid eating pork or sea food for a while.
Please see a throat specialist.
ibuprofen and paracetamol always work for me also warm milk and a teaspoon of honey
Just gargle with warm salt water, this will help crub the infection and the pain.
