Sore throat remedies?

My grandma used to juice a lemon and mix it with honey and use it as cough syrup. Or, alternatively, have me gargle with saltwater.

-Gargle some salt water. Tastes gross but helps a lot.

-Celestial Seasonings makes a wellness tea that always helps me if I add a lot of honey to it.

-And this is really gross, but my mother swears by it. I’ve never tried it. You’re supposed to fry onions and put honey on them, then eat it.

To soothe a sore throat mix a tablespoon of honey in a glass of hot water with the juice of a lemon. Its tastes really good and is good for a sore throat.

Have you been strep tested? You may need an antibiotic. If you let strep go untreated it can damage your heart.

Good heavens, that does sound like strep! I think you may be beyond home remedies. Drag yourself to the doctor.
@ laureth I love your answer! My Mom always made us gargle with salt water. I hated it but it was soothing.

drink some Throat Coat tea by Traditional Medicinals! Tastes great and does the trick!

I agree about Throat Coat tea. It tastes good and is very soothing. I recommend gargling with warm salt water and even incorporating the use of a Neti pot which is great for clearing out nasal mucus. Gargle and Neti for a real cleanse with salts.

Use the Throat Coat tea for the soothe it provides.

Drink clear liquids too.

Herbal hot tea and lots of honey. Get some good sleep!

A shot of whiskey

Nyquil heals everything. <3

Golf balls need the doc.

aniseed always helps me

@krose1223 Absolutely, whisky is the best for a sore throat as long as you aren’t driving or trying to be otherwise productive. I think the alcohol kills the germs along with the pain.

My ear, nose, and throat doctor told me to gargle using a 50/50 solution of peroxide and water; do not swallow it. It works but it is a jolt to the system. Don’t try it if you have a problem with gagging and do not use it for children.

Gargle with hot salt water and get some antibiotics!
