    Painkillers are the best solution, perhaps an anti-inflammatory like Aspirin (assuming you can tolerate it). Drink water, perhaps with a little lemon juice. It depends really what the cause of the sore throat is: if it is abrasion from sleeping in a dry room with your mouth open, it will clear after a few days; if it is an infection you'll have it a little longer, so avoid dairy products.

    Increase your vitamin c (orange juice is good), gargle with warm water with a little salt in it, and rest. Hope you feel better soon.
