Best way to get rid of a sore throat/ poll

[Wraith]

Top 5 ways i know how to get rid of one.

1. Gargle with Cayenne Pepper once every hour for 4 hours a day for 2 to 5 days. (Extreme way which has made my right eye Dark red gargle every 15 minutes for 3 hours with water of course)

2. Gargle with salt water.

3. Drink nothing but water and take lots of pain reliever.

4. Lots of rest.

5. Lots of rest and Vicks Vapor Rub everyday for a week.

Anyone have any other ideas?

6. All of the above.

Chloroseptic(sp?) always works fine for me.

I use the spray version...

1.Eat lumps of raw garlic, its horrible, it hurts, but it helps.
2. Decapitation, guaranteed 100% permanently effective!

I have that in front of me and it tastes wierd. It first started working a few days ago but now it just numbs barely or does nothing. I can barely stand garlic at all burns my eyes very badly. I think i have a viral infection so antibiotics wont help i think or any kind of pain reliever.

Be careful saying things like that, people might think you mean it.

My fix: Battlezone 2, MPI, hardest settings you can find. That should keep you busy for a while, so busy that a cold won't bother you.

I have the greatest respect for the forces of natural selection...If anyone is stupid enough to take my advice (2.) then it is still good advice!
It cures headaches very quickly too! Best to use a padded bucket to catch it in though.

That actually helped to ease the pain. Just no more games up .
