    get some soluble parecetomal (can be found at pharmacies) and gargle with it. best cure for a sore throat ever.

    also dont bother with soothers etc, normal boiled sweets do exactly the same thing for half the price.

    Be very careful.

    Mine started like that once.

    Ended up not being able to physically eat and had to go to hospital cos I had some kind of tumor in my lymph nodes.

    Painful cos it was at christmas :'(

    This is gunna sound REALLY gross, right, and any potential future husbands, look away now.





    If i have a sore throat but dont feel like it's a head cold, it's usually cos there's a buildup of bacteria in the back of my throat. Sometimes *YUKKY BIT* there's like a ball of hard mucous, that once dislodged the sore throat disappears, othertimes (usually when i have tonsilitus or the beginnings of anyway) it's just a film over my tonsils, if you get a clean dry cotton bud and try sorta wiping ur tonsils (be careful not to be sick here!), your sore throat should subside for a little while at least

    vodka didn't cause it, the smokey atmosphere did

    also, it's not soluble paracetamol u want, it's soluble aspirin, it's over the counter, u can get it in supermarkets next to all the other pain killers. dissolve it in a glass of water and gargle it for as long as you can. also, if you plan on drinking alcohol, dont swallow ANY pain killers.
