happybunnyluvsme	Depends, if it's just a sore throat, then try to stay hydrated (tea or water might work), I know it hurts to swallow, but it really helps with soothing the throat, also gargling some salt water works REALLY well. If it's strep throat, which it may be, then you'd need to see a doctor and get a prescription. Feel Better! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Ali	Ginger tea (bring fresh sliced Ginger and water to a boil and simmer for as long as needed to achieve the desired potency) works well. You can keep adding water to the Ginger slices as you drink it. Gargling warm salt water is good, if you can stand the aftertaste. Personally, I'd go with the Ginger tea Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

mrr86	Well if it is an infection, you can take antibiotics prescribed by your doctor. But, coming from someone who gets sore throats quite often- I have not yet found a cure. I eat alot of ice cream, which makes my throat feel better only WHILE eating it, and hot soup also helps but also only WHILE drinking it. When I am done, it hurts again.. so as a result, I constantly eat, and probably gain weight when I am sick. My dad insists that gargling with salt water helps, but I don't know how much it helps. I guess it depends on the kind of sore throat you have. Good luck! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

rdude	Definetely try to talk as little as possible. Drinking fluids helps. My friend said that when he had a sore throat he drank tea with honey in it and it made him feel better. Get some of those cough drop things that say that they soothe sore throats. Also take Aspirin or some kind of painkiller, especially a half an hour before you go to sleep so that you can sleep better. Salty foods like crackers and pretzels also help. And for lunch eat warm soup. Make sure you get plenty of rest and sometimes when I have a sore throat I like to take a long hot bath. I feel the warm vapors of the water help soothe my throat. I hope you feel better soon and I hope my advice helps. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
