    I always drink tea when I have a cold and a sore throat because tea is nice and hot so it relaxes my throat and some teas have antioxidants which and help with the cold.

    I like to eat salty chips when I have a sore throat the chips help scrap the mucus off the inside of your throat and the salt helps it heal also to drink I like lemon lime soda with a extra squeeze of lemon in it

    Or if your throat is really hurting heat up a cup of water and add some fresh lemon juice and a little bit of cayenne pepper and drink it slowly I know it sounds crazy but it really does work really well

    Hope you feel better soon :-)

    Popsicles Pudding Fruit smoothies Sherbert Peaches or Pears Apple juice Oatmeal Chewing gum keeps your throat consistently bathed and that would desire to grant some relief. Broth meals with honey in it Yogurt Macaroni and Cheese

    I can't say that there are many foods that magically cure a sore throat. However it's good to choose foods that are easy on your throat and taste good. Avoid things that are spicy or have a rough texture because they only irritate your throat more. Some good things to try include:

    finger jello

    yogurt

    pudding

    fruit juices

    hot tea

    marshmallows

    gummy candy

    scrambled eggs

    string cheese

    mashed potatoes

    macaroni and cheese

    peanut butter and jelly sandwich

    canned soups

    steamed vegetables

    canned fruit

    instant oatmeal

    My favorite thing, that is both wonderful for the throat and really soothing, is a cup of hot water with about two tablespoons lemon juice, 2 tablespoons honey, and (optional) about 1/8 tsp ground clove.

    It's yummy, and really makes the throat feel wonderful. :)

  • drink alot of warm water. dont eat anything solid. Eat like jello. Try going to the doctors and ask them and also ask for medicine.
