There are tons of home remedies for soothing sore throats. 1. Try drinking some hot tea with honey, the honey coats your throat and stops the pain for a few minutes. Also, if you do not like honey and tea together, just take in the honey. It has the same effect. 2. Gargle salt water every 2 hours. All you need to do is put one table spoon of salt in a glass of water, but do not swallow it. 3. Try taking Halls, cough drops, they really work and soothe your throat for a good ten minutes. 4. Eat ice pops! Cold actually helps! When I have sore throats, I actually eat too many popsicles, so I used a popsicle maker to make plain ice pops, without any sugars, fat or calories.

Hope that helped!

gargle with really hot salt water I have one that works: Get some honey and (this may sound kinda weird but do it!) drink it. When drinking don't just swallow it, let it SLOWLY go down your throat. Trust me it feels really good and it worked for me! If it doesn't work for you than I don't know what to tell you, you might just wanna let it go away on its own. P.S. Try to stay away from the cold when you have a sore throat it will only make you feel worse.
