Contest // Sore throat
INTRODUCTION
Warm greetings to all the healthy steemians. Hope you are all good. I am here again to participate in the contest organised by @Khursheedanwar in healthy steem community, with the topic; Sore Throat.
Sore throat is a dry and scratchy feeling in the throat that makes it painful to eat, talk and swallow. Sore throat can be caused by infections (like cold, or flu), or can be caused by dry air or smoking which is the environmental factor.
If you have sore throat, you might have
• A dry, scratchy throat
• A Painful throat especially when you want to swallow
• Redness in the back of your mouth
• Bad breath
• A mild cough, sneezing and a runny nose
• A swollen neck gland.
Two weeks ago i was a victim of sore throat infection. These were the home remedies i took to relief me from sore throat.
1 Drinking Honey With Warm Water And Lemon
Honey has anti-bacterial and antimicrobial properties that helps in suppressing any bacteria or flu.
Steps Taken
•Put a glass of warm water
•Add 2 tablespoon of honey
•Cut the lemon into two and add half of it to the already mixed warm water with honey.
•Stir and drink in the morning and in the evening.
2 Gargling With Salt Water
This method helps in breaking down secretion and reduce bacteria in the throat.
Steps Taken
•Put one full glass of warm water
•Add half teaspoon of salt
•Gargle it helps in reducing swelling and keep the throat clear.
•Do this method at least 3 times in a day.
3 Steam or Humidity
This is a method of inhaling a hot boiled water inorder to help ease a sore throat.
Steps Taken
•Add boiled water to a bowl
•Place a towel over your head as you put your face on the boiled water bowl. So as to allow the steam enter through your mouth and nose.
•Do it like 10- 15 minutes. If the water gets cold, you can add more boiled water to keep it steamy.
These where the few remedies i took at home to relief me of sore throat. And it worked wonders, because i was consistent in practising it. The sore throat went away in three days.
