how do you get rid of a sore throat when u can't swallow anything?

can’t swallow anything without breaking into tears. i’ve tried all those. i can’t even swallowwater >.<

Then you need to go back to your doctor. Ginger is really painful ,but it also really takes away the pain.

ya i know. they gave me some rly strong pain meds but they’re the reason i’m up right now. nightmares/ throwing up at 4 am is NO FUN. X.X

When you go, take your medication with and tell them it is making you sick, then they can give you something for the nausea too. oh and are you sure it isn’t maybe tonsillitis? Ask your doctor to check for that too. A throat that painful should be more than just a sore throat.

thats what i said >_> plus i got a double ea infection, so i can’t hear on top of it all. my respritory systemhates me >.<

Press down on ur toincoles or whateer there called it works

gargle warm salt water a few times a day

What about just have a really hot shower, and breathe in all the hot steams (: .

Unless you are being tube fed, you Have to swallow something, right? My favorite fix is salt and vinegar potato chips. The salt warms and soothes the soreness and redness, the grease from the chips lube your throat, and the texture of the potato chips scratchy going down feels good. Go out and buy a bag! Suck on them slowly if you have to so they are easier to swallow.

While such a vile solution it does wonders for a sore throat. Ugh I hate warm saltwater.

lol thats what my doctor said to do, but it turns outi’ve got mono >.< so now they’ve gotme on some pretty good pain meds
