I don't feel well and my throat really hurts. I was going to make some tea but mom stopped me and said that it's bad to eat and drink hot stuff when you're sick and your throat hurts.

Can anyone tell me some good stuff to drink or eat to make my throat feel better? I can barely swallow as it is now.

Gargle a warm saline solution. That'll sanitize it...

You won't feel much better, but you'll heal way faster.

Gargling mouthwash does the trick for me.

gargle with cayenne pepper. It has something called like niacin in it that is in a lot of pain medications. Just don't accidentally inhale any of it, because it will feel like you just got pepper sprayed.

Do like 1/8th a tsp to a large glass of water.

It really does make my throat feel better when I do it.
