How To Treat Sore Throat?

I have a sore throat and its really strange from the previous ones I've experienced. When I talk I tend to feel ok but as soon as I start swallowing anything it's irritated. Even when drinking hot items such as tea or coffee it does not soothe the pain.

Hi,

Sore throats, are often caused by viral infections.You can use antiinflamatory sprays or lozenges but i would also suggest you some natural remedies that may help:

-Ginger ,lemon juice and honey.Ginger helps flush out toxins from your body and boosts your blood circulation and has anti-inflammatory properties.Just mix the fresh ginger juice with 3 tablespoons of lemon juice and 3 tablespoons of honey.You can sip the mixture whenever you feel your throat irritated.
-A warm infusion of ginger with honey added may also help sooth a sore throat

Kind regards,
Dr.Mersi
