Hi,
I must say that you should do warm salt water gargle. Also do Betadine gargle. Avoid having cold food. Have warm food stuffs and hot coffee. Have lots of citrus fruits and drink warm water.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Rohit S. Menon, Dentist
