I feel fine besides the fact that my throat is sore as fuck. my glands are sooooo big. I tried everything, but nothing works. Does anyone have any natural suggestions to cure a really sore throat? I hate medicines that throw my energies out of whack. Please help!
when my throat hurts i drink herbal tea with licorice root, slippery elm bark, marshmallow root, fennel, cinnamon bark, and sweet orange peel.
There is a product called Tonsiline which is an old fashioned gargle for sore throats that is absolutely excellent. You mix one part warm water with one part tonsiline and gargle with it. It has knocked out sore throats for me when nothing else works. Most pharmacies don't have it on the counter, but they can special order it for you and get it the next day. It only costs about $4. Good luck.
do you have any sage? you can make a triple stregnth tea, let it cool, & gargle with it. you can also add some salt, apple cider vinegar, & (if you're feeling brave) a pinch of cayenne this remedy always works for me
you should go to the doctor and make sure its not infected, if it is he/she wil probably give u some penicilin. Get the banana flavored stuff its tasty.
Strep can damage your heart, for life, if it is not treated properly. My mother has a damaged heart because of an untreated strep infection when she was a child. It has affected her entire life, she could never play sports or exert herself ect. I'd see a doctor to make sure it isn't Strep. Strep, in the early stages is easily cured (no antibiotics are not pleasant to take, but they beat rheumatic fever by a long shot, which will really throw your "energies" out of whack for life) and you will make a full recovery. I hope you feel better.
