[QUOTE="gingerkat, post: 1222068, member: 43502"] [FONT=Georgia]My doctor and dentist always tells me to just gargle with simple salt water solution. If the throat, mucous membranes or gums are swollen, a temporary fix would be warm water and salt (8 oz warm water and 1 tsp salt dissolved) and gargle. The salt draws excess fluid from the inflamed areas. Tastes like crap, but I guess it helps.[/FONT] [FONT=Georgia]There is also the Apple cider vinegar way 1tsp vinegar 2 tsp water, used as a gentle antiseptic and gargle. [/FONT] [FONT=Georgia]Another homemade remedy to relive irritation is honey and lemon juice in equal parts. I use this one in a tea (like sleeve said), but I hate green tea, so I use something else, but no caffeine.[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
