    Gargle with warm salt water.

    Chew a betel leaf with licorice.

    Boil 2 tsp fenugreek leaves in water and gargle with it while slightly warm.

    Take one or two cloves of garlic and some cloves. Make them into a paste and eat it with two tsp honey.

    Water boiled with sage leaves, drained and cooled is another option you can try.

    Drop two drops of tea tree oil in water and drink it.

    Diet

    Drink plenty of water. It may feel difficulty drinking water while you have sore throat. Drink water warm to avoid the difficulty drinking water.
