How can I cure my strep throat before Halloween?
Hey Cute Avitar! Here are the basics for home remedies ok. Drinking enough fluids is very important. Choose high-quality fluids such as soup broth (which replaces both salt and water losses) and sugar-containing solutions (they help the body absorb the fluids more rapidly). Avoid caffeine because it can cause water loss. Throat lozenges often prove inadequate for all but the most minor cases. Gargling with salt water is sometimes helpful. You may try mixing table salt with warm water and gargling. Getting extra sleep can promote more rapid recovery, especially if a virus is the cause. Herbal teas containing ingredients such as licorice have shown in studies to provide significant relief from a sore throat. You will get out there so just lay low and you will be fine!!
