My throat sore badly recently,I dob't know.I dink a lot of water,it didn't help.I still got a sore throat and I am thirsty easily.Is is has something to to with my computer.I spend all day long by my computer,some times my erys are dry and a little sore,not so bad as the throat.Should I take some pills or eat some kind of food?Really,I don't like taking pills or seeing the doctor. Have you had a thore throat? How did you deal with that?

Honey mixed with a little lemon juice is excellent for sore throats,perhaps you have been drinking contaminated water,or just picked up a bug,if it does not improve I would seek medical advice,you may require an antihistamine for a allergy? Hope you feel better soon.

Sounds like you might have a little virus or an allergy. If the honey and lemon doesn't work, try gargling with very warm salt water several times a day to heal your sore throat. It might burn a little if your throat is raw, but it will help heal it. I'd keep drinking water and rest your eyes - the dryness is probably from using the computer all day.
