What is a Sore Throat?
When pain, scratchiness or irritation of the throat that often worsens when one swallows is known as sore throat. A more common cause of a this malady (pharyngitis) is viral infection, such as a cold or the flu (infuenza). A sore throat caused by a virus resolves on its own. However, strep throat (streptococcal infection), a less common type of ailment caused by bacteria, may require more complex treatment.
Use of apple cider vinegar mixed with honey might prove helpful in soothing a sore throat. Take 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon of honey and 1 cup of mildly hot water, then mix. Have it while still mildly hot (sip, so as not to suffer any unecessary burns)!
Salt Water Gargle
Use of gargling with salt water might decrease swelling, as salts primary function is to draw out water, which in turn shrinks swollen cell and eases pain. And it washes away excess mucous and allows stuffy nose (if any) to drain appropriatly.
Mix 1 cup warm water (8 oz.) and ½ teaspoon table salt. Gargle, then use as needed throughout the day.
Please remember that (in case one were using other prescription medications) it's always a good thing to first consult with a healthcare practitioner (or doctor) before starting any new sore throattreatment (either naturopathic or homeopathic doctor, best).
