What can I take for my sore throat? Someone has sneaked in some razorblades. Thanks.

I am in on my own so can't go to chemist or wherever.

Wine not working.

have you got any soluble painkillers that you can gargle?

failing that, a spoon of honey

best thing for a sore throat is an ice lolly or ice cubes - was given a bucketful of ice cubes to suck in a hospital to numb the back of my throat and it does work!

gargle with soluble asprin or move on to stronger booze

Poor you .

If my throat is sore I make a hot toddy (boiling water, couple of slices of lemon, honey and two paracetemol tabs dissolved in it).

I also suck on a boiled sweet just before going to sleep which often helps as it keeps the saliva flowing.

Hope you feel better soon.

have had ibruprofen

icepops

will try honey

dd1 said I have a sort throat because I shout!!!

lol

More wine! you'll be too distracted to think about how much it hurts

Gargle with Tcp tonight and first thing tomorrow morning. Then go to pharmacy and ask for Strefen throat pastilles. They're the biz!!

Gargle with salt water mate.

TCP????

will go to Boots tomoorow but am in pain NOW goddamit

no sympathy from grumpy bollocks who has swanned off to the pub

manuka honey in the morn from the shops.
powerful antiseptic qualities

olive you wimp, get on with the salt water mate, it bloody works and you have it in the house now. DO IT, that's a n order

Might you have tonsilitis? If so you'll need anti biotics, it won't just go

painkillers in the meantime

Sage tea is marvellous, you think "oh yesh right " but it really does work

(just infuse dried sage in boiling water, strain then gargle with it)

Of course if you are sober you might think "oh yes" instead of "oh yesh"
