O/T...how to get rid of sore throats?

my throat hurts still hurts, and i know many of you are in the medical field. What are the best ways to fix a sore throat?

Chloraseptic =)

Lots of sleep and OJ

Start gargling w/peroxide, taking cold-eeze, vitamin C and echni

Gargling w/peroxide will help kill lthe germs. Also taking Vitamin C every four hours, and echinicea 3 times a day, stops me from catching a cold. Also use cold-eeze w/Zinc.

I just read...

to mix 1/4 cup of vinegar with 1/4 cup of honey and
take 1 Tablespoon six times a day. The vinegar supposedly kills the bacteria and the honey is supposed to kill the pain...Hope you feel better!! Naomi

Frozen Grapes

This will not cure your sore through but does make it feel a lot better. Freeze some grapes, red seedless are the best. When they are frozen, eat them slowly and they feel really good going down your sore throat. They are also good to cool you off on a very hot day. Hope you feel better soon.

Babysitting tonight?

If your throat is still sore and you don't feel well .. you should let those people know and maybe they can find another sitter until you are well.

You would feel bad if those children became sick because of something you brought to their house.

I hope you feel better soon.

Questions

Is your throat hurting because you threw up or is it just hurting? Can you see it in the mirror? Does it look red? Does it have any spots on it? If it is very red or looks like it has spots of pus on it, you might have strep throat. I would think people would get it more in the winter and the school year, but guess you could get it anytime. What does your mom think? I would tell her and let her look.

Chloroseptic Spray helps the discomfort. It tastes bad though.

...if no fever, gargle warm water with 2 Tblspns salt. am, pm, b

works well. Throat spray can irritate worse when used
as many times as needed. Also can make tongue feel raw. BTW, was nurse aid for 5 yrs, EMT for 3.

Hope you feel better soon.
