What's on Your Mind

[LJay]

Depends on where the sore throat is coming from but gargling salt water often helps. If it is post-nasal drip, I use Afrin nose spray for no longer than three nights--nights only--to allow me to get some rest. Drink LOTS AND LOTS of fluids. Things like warm slightly sweet tea, chicken or beef broth cubes help. Grandma's remedy: a little honey or sugar, some ginger, juice of a lemon, a good tot of whiskey and fill up the mug with hot water. Soothing. Besides, thinking of grandma makes me feel good any time.
