Hi. I have a really bad cold and i need a way to get better by tuesday. I have to go back to work on tuesday and i went to the doctor but she could only give me something for congestion but not my throat or body aches. My throat is the worst...is there anything i can do to help m throat, its very scratchy and sore when I swallow...

cough drops .. any thing strong .. a nice swig of tea! ]
Ibuprofen (advil) is great for sore throats and body aches, and although it does not make the pain go away 100% it definitely helps make you feel a bit better. Just get some rest and drink lots of water. ]
yea im paralized from the waste down and i need to get better by monday because i want to participate in my school track meet. ]
drink hot drinks for the throat like tea and coffee it does work :)
if your cold with it as well curl up in bed with a hot water bottle! it could be one of those couple of day bugs! feel better soon hun! xXx ]
I would say... get plenty of rest... take benedryll and get some throat lodges/ spray. Take vitamins... drink orange juice. Soup's good too :)
Hope you feel better

You can buy some cough drops, make sure they're medicated. Although, I find they only temporarily relieve my throat. Go to a drug store and get Cepocal brand if you can find it. They use them in a hospital and they are very strong. They come in a little box and taste nasty, but they're very effective.
You can try gargling warm salt water. I always do that when my throat is scratchy and it comforts my throat for a while. ]
LOTS of citrus And go in you shower and turn it up really hot dont stand under the water just breath in the steam ]
really hot tea with a few drops of lemon and about a teaspoon of honey....... it tastes good too. It helps clear the vocal cords of what causes the scratchyness.
Hope i helped
