Besides the time/rest/honey & lemon/eucalyptus already suggested, echinacea-zinc lozenges help with curing and Thayer's slippery elm bark lozenges help with relieving pain.

Gargle an aspirin, that helps reduce the irritation a little. The tigress is here :-D

green chili is the local cure for all minor ailments... the chili has a combination of Vitamin C which is already known to help fight disease, Capsaicin which also has some interesting properties (including helping healing, and making you forget your other problems). _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau.

you can also replace the eucalyptus oil with Tiger Balm. (http://www.tigerbalm.com[^]) but take care, it is a lot stronger....

I was in recently, and they suggested the following: 1. No caffeine 2. Gargle 2-3 times a day with warm salt water 3. Eat some Vitamin C - 1000 mg per day 4. Cepacol tablets for relieving the pain I've seen better runs in my shorts! - Patches O'Houlihan
