How to cure a sore throat

[clicknext]

Anyone know a good way to cure a sore throat? I was at some noisy place on saturday night and I killed my throat and my voice... that plus I have a bit of a cold. I'm already drinking so much water that I go to the bathroom about once every half hour. I need this damn thing to go away before wednesday because I have to perform with a choir I'm in... x_x

A fifth of Jack should do the trick.

Gargle with warm salt water.

Stop talking. Maybe try gargling too.

This is probably the best advice, although I recommend sipping baking soda water instead of gargling salt water.

Let it trickle down the back of your throat, it will feel better immediately. Do not drink it fast, unless you want to simulate a mountain explosion a'la vinegar and bakingsoda.

Also, get some Halls Defense Echinecea and Vitamin C cough drops.

If you do these two things, expect it to be gone in ~48 hrs.

Make a "tea" with hot water, some lemon juice, and honey. Sip it.
Don't talk too much.
Look at it in the mirror to make sure it's not all white and nasty (like strep or something).
Well, sometimes men try to get women to do something because it's good for sore throats. Don't think you want to try that one.
