Take a spoonful of honey before you sleep. It works like a charm and your throat will be good again in the morning.

Oh Yes i heard about the therapeutic effect of honey. I was not able to go out for now because I decided to just rest at home. I should really try it some time. Thank you.

There are all kinds of natural remedies. Ginger tea works very well. Also, try cinnamon. Take about 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and 2 teaspoons of honey and put in a mug with boiling water and a pinch of pepper. That should help, plus they are ingredients most people have on hand!

@birjudanak Ah good. I guess warm water with cinnamon would be very effective.

Ginger tea with honey. Turmeric in hot milk or water.

I very seldome get one, but tea/honey, or gargle with salt water usually helped. Mine always went away in a day.

Thank you. I tried salted warm water and I think its effective because I felt relieved from the sore in my throat so far.

When I was young, people said that cold things like ice creams or even any cold drink wouldn't be good for my throat. Some time later I discovered that it's not true and cold things can even ease the pain, or that's for me at least, I am not sure if that works for everyone thou... Some people still think that this won't do good for you.

Oh that's new to me. I think you have a point there. I would need to probably do some research about that also. Thank you for updating me.
