Whats good for a sore throat? omg im burning up!!

Question

my throat hurts just a little and im coughing up a lot of mucus. i dont wanna take any medicine any home remidies???

wut do i do?

Answer 1

I know this may sound crazy...but if you gargle with some crushedred pepper a couple of times your throat will stop hurting... i do it sometimes.......its nasty but it works lol

Answer 2

Try some warm tea with honey and take a little Tylenol to soothe the pain. Most home medical books don't recommend this for liability reasons. I.E some moron might do something stupid and sue, but to loosen the mucous put menthol gel, like Vicks in a bowl of boiling water, mix it around, lean over the bowl with a towel over your head and breathe in the vapor. Just be VERY careful not to burn yourself while you are preparing the mixture. Cover your arms completely, wear heavy gloves and use a long handled wooden spoon to stir it and let it sit for about five minutes.

I used to work in a call center and it was imperative for me to relieve these problems quickly! Good Luck!

Answer 3

Answer 5

Cinnamon Candy in the form of either atomic fire balls or hot tamales.  The Dollar Tree is a good place to invest.

Answer 6

Milk is ABSOLUTELY not good when you are sick like that. It will not help. Have some tea! That will work good! Add some honey and lemon! That Always works! Oh and Chicken Noodle Soup! ; )

Answer 7

pour 1/3 cup of lemon juice, chopped up ginger, and honey into a mug of hot water.  the honey coats your throat, as does the lemon, and the chopped ginger clears your head.  also wear a scarf around your neck to keep it warm.

Answer 8

IDK why, but milk always helps...hot chocolate... i know you don't want to take medicine but go to the doctor and get a prescription for the "z-pack" (thats how you pronounce it but its not spelled that way) you probably have strep throat or a virus.  

Answer 9

I know how u feel..

What my mother do is she makes me a hot drink made of ginger, honey and apple cider vinegar...

It really works.. You just have to shred the ginger and put it in a tea bag or something.. And drink it like the ordinary tea except that your sweetener is 1 tbs. of Honey and 1 tbs. of Vinegar..

Answer 10

Well, for a temporary measure, you could use a salty water gargle. One teaspoonful of table salt into a tumbler of just warm water. Stir until dissolved. take a mothful and gargle. finish off the tumbler full.

Ideally, see your doctor. You might have an infection and need a medicine  or tablet that will get rid of it. Better you get rid of it before it might do the same to you!

Don't worry. You cannot be too bad or you would have done that already.
