To Cure A Throat Infection

What's your method? I threw the kitchen sink at mine. Antiobiotics, B-complex, Tylenol, cloves, warm milk mixed with turmeric, ginger tea (with honey and lime), copious amounts of hot drinking water and Rasam (South Indian spicy lentil soup). Dunno which, but it did the trick!

Betadine gargle usually does the trick (3-5 days). Antibiotics in one case (7 days).

Heh. I knew I'd forgotten something on my list. I tried Betadine gargles and the more traditional salt gargles as well. I think the antibiotic did the trick in my case while the others, particularly the cloves and gargles, provided temporary relief.
