Tylenol should take care of it and don't forget to gargle with a little salt water.

Answer 2

Ricola or halls cough drops, hot tea WITH HONEY, and evry few hours warm water and salt and goggle

Good Luck

Answer 3

I don't suppose you have a Propolis spray in your alternative medicine cabinet? You should buy one tomorrow. It's a powerful natural antibacterial made by bees, and even more powerful than honey.

For the moment, honey in a hot thyme infusion (or any tea of you don't have thyme).

All the best and I wish you a speedy recovery! (Remember the propolis spray tomorrow! :-) You can't take the chance of not having it next time!
