Answer 6

Gargling with honey and soda will make it feel better for awhile, but not much more.

To actually kill the bug, you'll need some sort of antibiotic (prescription).

By the way, the hot water and salt described above will help immensely for quick relief - it dries out the tissue which will reduce the pain.

Of course your salivary glands will then work overtime to make things wet again and the pain will come back - but if you need to "get through" something, keep it in mind.
