Cider vinegar - but it tastes and smells absolutely foul. I used it once and it worked almost immediately. I've had sore throats since but would rather put up with the sore throat!

(Yes, I should MTFU...)

Warm salt water every 4 hours, simple pain relief. Avoid really cold drinks. Eat normally, don't stick with soft foods etc.

Sounds like a throat infection. I had one a year ago, remedies didn't work, couldn't sleep for 3 nights, tears running down my face. It was truly a miserable experience. A visit to the Dr's and antibiotics prescribed and I was right as rain again.

Good luck. Nothing worse that a sore throat, except for an tooth abscess, oh wait or root treatment. or.... its bad, I empathise.

I find that paracetamol is really effective for throat pain. Get some otc stuff life solpadeine 8mg codeine / 500mg paracetamol.

Gargle salt n' water, go to bed early and have plenty of protein, relax from stress and admit no matter what it will still ****ing take a day or two to mend.

Paracetamol will make symptoms bearable if you have some special occasion etc.

steak for dinner and an early night for sure, been knocking back the paracetamol & dequicane with reckless abandon for the last couple of days, I fear amputation may be my best option!!
