If you want to get rid of a sore throat you just have to put some salt in some water, and then you just swish that in your mouth for a bit, it definitely doesnโ€™t taste good but if you do that like three times a day it will get rid of it no problem, I hope you get better soon ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿผ:blush:

A spoonful of honey is my go to for sore throat. If you donโ€™t like honey alone add it to hot tea. A hot shower can help with the stuffy noseโ€ฆ

For the nose, you should use some nasal spray
For your cough, you can use some louzenges ( strepsils are my fav).
You should also drink a lot of fluids and rest your voice

My mum always gave us bicarb soda and honey dissolved in milk for our sore throats. It tasted nasty, but it worked :milk_glass:

That sounds like this thing my mom told me to make its called golden milkโ€ฆ I hate milk :tired_face::tired_face:

Golden milk is a bit different, it mainly has turmeric in it as an anti-inflammatory.

I think the milk is optional with the bicarb and honey, you might be able to try it with just warm water. Garlic is also a cure-all in my family :grin:

i heard you can search up the recipe on google, but you put a lot of salt in water and swish it around in your mouth for a little while and spit it out. i tried it but i accidentally swallowed it.

Iโ€™m in the same boat. :tired_face: Mine is covid. I have found Zyrtec D (from pharmacy but no script) stops the drainage from making my throat sore and nose from running. Also hot tea and gurgling salt water helps too! Yogi makes a sore throat tea that is nice. Hope you feel better soon!

If the symptoms persist, best to see your physician, make sure it isnโ€™t strep throat or other serious condition
