Answer 5

  have him gargle hydrogen peroxide and quickly grab some salt watter to  gargle after wards. Hydrogen peroxide taste horrible but it's good for sore throats.

Answer 6

When I've had trouble with my throat, I would gargle with salt water.

Or peroxide and water. Honey is very good too. Have him eat a tablespoon of honey every morning for a couple of days. Good luck.

Answer 7

If he is a singer, then use oil of oregano! It works like a charm.  It is known for fighting colds and the flu and will cure him in the long run, but will also work to get him singing in no time.  It tastes awful, but just let a couple of drops run down the back of your throat and he should be able to sing almost instantly.  It burns a little as it goes down, but is a miracle for us singers!  

Answer 8

Ibuprofen, 4 of them to relieve the pain for a good while and a salt water gargle.  He is going to have to do this through the evening to get through.  Just have him take the salt shaker with him.  The Ibuprofen will only work for 4 hours so have him bring extra.

Answer 9

He should still get the antibiotics and take them as prescribed, but for tmporary relief he should gargle with soluble aspirin and then swallow it. This acts like an anaesthetic from the outside then acts from the inside as pain relief.

He can also try taking a spoonful of honey. This soothes the throat and it is supposed to have natural healing properties.
