    ok i just recently got over a pretty severe sore throat and this knocked it out in barely more than a day. i took vitamin C tablets to boost my immune system so it would knock it out faster and to sooth it while i was waiting for that i drank green tea "throat coat version" its pretty much teabags that you boil in water and i mixed it with honey and lemon juice, thats close to the best your gonna get without going to the doctor for antibiotics or something like that. hope it works for you :)

    try squeezing lemon into a tbsp of honey and drink. In between you can gargle with warm salt water. Be sure to drink plenty of fluids and get some vitamin c.

    Ah... cough drops. If it is a infection though, mix 1 part hot water, 1 part white vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of salt and gargle that until its gone. That will burn it right out of ya.

    Wel, if it is strep throat you need an antibiotic. Otherwise you can you a cough medicine or gargle with lidocaine solution.
