I woke up this morning to a scratchy, sore throat. It's not excruciating or anything similar to that, but it's really irritating. Due to it's mild nature, I don't think that cough syrups are necessary. Do any of you know of some remedies that run in your family or something that treat sore throats? Don't post salacious ****!

Lots of tea and cough drops do the trick for me. Drop the cough drop(s) in the tea and it does wonders.

I was about to.

Do you drink a specific type of tea?

I usually drink this:

Hot green tea with some honey!

I sometimes put honey in the tea.

I knew that if I didn't post that some of you would post sexual stuff. Anyway, thanks.

I Gargle Salted Water With Lemon in it..It Works and takes the pain away
+ Numbs it

Theraflu will knock that sh*t right out of you, but it makes you sleepy in the process. As for home remedies, boil some water and add fresh ginger, drink it slowly and you should be good.

Lots of lozenges for me, and sometimes it helps if you gargle with salt water, like Ejayfierce said.

This gif combined with the seriousness of what you're saying

I gargle salt and water. It usually works.

I tried gargling salt water before, but I always swallow it involuntarily & that mess is nasty

That happens to me also.
