Today, I woke up SOOOOOO irritated because I have a very sore throat. I believe I am about to have colds so I have to suffer because of this very uncomfortable feeling. I really hate having sore throat.. How about you?? Can you tell me some of your experiences about having sore throat?? (I'm sure you have experienced it..)

Sorry.It`s really nasty:-( Then more when this happens at summer season. Have some tea with honey. And drink more fluids. Some lemon is also a good tool.

next time that sore throat strikes again, i will remember this tip that you have shared here. hot tea with honey plus lemon juice. natural foods are always best to use for medication to alleviate us of our illnesses.

A sore throat is what I need the least especially if I'm due for a speaking engagement, or is having a class, or an important meeting. It's laborious to communicate to other people, and is really sooo frustrating. One time I was supposed to meet high school friends, like a reunion...I was so excited; alas, my cough got the better of me. When I woke up, I could hardly talk...And of all days...I did attend the reunion, but had to excuse myself from talking. Call it bad timing...but it was really an embarassing experience.

Well your sore throat indeed came at the worst possible instant. LOL Nevertheless, I think your friends do understand your situation.

i suffered from my worst sore throat early this year. it lasted for some weeks - or was it more than a month? i didn't worry so much about it as i had herbs to cope with the situation. i never suffered from so much infection as a matter of consequence. but it was too much, i cannot even say a word, it was too painful. and the problem was aggravated by my coughing which was really running so deep. i believe you know how i mean about that kind of coughing which kind of comes from the innermost of our lungs.

i always seem to get a sore throat as well before im getting the cold or the flu. its so annoying but the only good thing is, is that at least you know whats coming, try drinking some hot water and honey - that will sometimes sooth it. if not just try everything thats on the shelfs lol, its always a good excuse to start eating ice cream though ;-) hope u feel better soon

I feel you should consult a doctor and take cold cough medicines for your sore throat as one shouldn't dleay such things as it can get worse. I also feel there are few natural remedies like gurgling with salt in hot water in the mouth for some time. And inhaling steam by puting towel over your face and head. Hopefully you will feel better.

Since I have been on a very natural and organic lifestyle for over a year, and I exercise, I very rarely get a cold or sore throat anymore. When I do get one, however, I gargle repeatedly with lukewarm salt water, and drink a mixture of lemon juice, honey, and garlic in warm water three times a day. I hate getting sick with anything, colds, sore throats, whatever, and so I fight it off as aggressively as I can.

yes, sore throat is really bad and it also really irritates me too much. having sore throat is a little problem but it also irritates so much.
