sore throat... eek!

[Kaleidoscope]

Can anyone suggest something that works? So far I've made fresh lemon, ginger and Manuka honey drinks and gargled with salt water. No fever or excessive tiredness. I would like to avoid the doctors. Swallowing a bit sore too. Any tips? I'm 21 weeks but not sure if that has a bearing on anything.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Paracetamol is fine to take during pregnancy and soreness will go away - get well soon x

I bought ginger wine in Holland&Barret and it helped me a lot with cold and sore throat. It's alcohol free and very strong, I used 1shot 3times a day after meal.
