    Hi,
    my throat is sore the last few days. Trying to fix it with constant soothers and strepsils. I can only say a few words then its all squeaky and quiet.

    I need to be able to talk in 2 hours time!

    Anyone got an idea for a quick fix?

    Thanks

    Perhaps something high in protein and salt?

    Salted egg whites?

    50% Hydrogen peroxide 50% water, gargle, DON'T SWALLOW. Ok? Say about 200ml and gargle for about 60 seconds should do it, again DON'T SWALLOW.

    I wouldnt put anything over 6% peroxide near my mouth :O

    Don't speak at all. Drink ice cold liquids all day and piping hot food.

    the cold contracts the muscles in your throat and once they heat up they should relax them.

    I base that on absolutely nothing.

    After Hours should have this sorted for you in neigh time, OP.

    Have you thought about trying one of these.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 143 ✭✭EddyC15


    Your shopping list:
    Lemons
    Honey
    Sugar
    TCP Liquid
    Merocets

    Dilute the TCP and gargle with it like mad.

    Boil water. Juice a lemon into a mug. Pour in boiling water. Add 2 good spoons of honey. Add sugar to taste. (Optional: shot of whiskey in there too for good measure)

    Take Merocets as directed. I find they're better than Strepsils. A lot better.

    I think i overdosed on strepsils. Feeling tired but really really happy. Laughing at stupid things, so hard that I shed a tear.

    Insight?

    There's an old wive's tale that says an overdose on strepsils will lead to resurrection of zombie threads.

    OH MY GOD IT'S TRUE!!!!
