Zinc lozenges are good too
|
I recently got the flu and was left with a sore throat which felt like H@LL fire was built in my mouth. Someone told me to go buy some RAW honey and take a tsp of it and swish it around my throat and swallow. My throat had been almost closed up I must say... but after taking the teaspoon of honey, it was immediately gone. The raw honey has a healing property in it. It cost me like 10.00 for a quart but boy was it so worth the money. I hope this helps and hope he gets better.

There is a tea called Throat Coat that really works.

Edit: I replied before I read the rest of the thread. A lot of us think alike! |

however, if you have a sore throat, and no sinus drainage, no cough, no fever...you might have acid reflux instead! |
Chamomile - mint tea (like some "bedtime" teas), with honey and lemon juice if there is a cough.

Thanks for all the tip; great things to know.

I recently bought some tea bags from wal mart that was especially for sore throat. I had to pay almost five dollars for the box, but it was so soothing it was worth it.
