How do I cure a sore throat?
assistant
The best way to cure a sore throat is to get plenty of rest, drink lots of fluids, and use lozenges or hard candy to soothe your throat. Taking over-the-counter medications such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen may help as well. You can also gargle with warm salt water to help reduce inflammation and relieve pain. If your sore throat persists, you should see a doctor for a diagnosis and possible treatment.
