honey seems to be helpful in the right proportions.
Still figuring that out.
Thanks tons.
I just remembered another olde time suggestion for achy sore throat, and that is ginger tea.
I keep a tiny jar of minced ginger with my flu-preps, but one can use the powdered ginger from the spice aisle in the grocery store, too.
I think it kind of “operates” as a mild anaesthetic - which incidentally, the clove oil found in full strength Listerine does the same thing.
I really empathize with your plight, and that’s why I always have on hand, in with the flu-preps, small glass jars of honey and a huge variety of flavors and brands of cough drops.
A terrible sore throat of the variety you are sufferring from is simply vile.
Take care.
