Hi!! I would stick to the salt water and honey remedies. Lemon can dry out your throat and irritate it more. Also try the following, it worked wonders for me at 8 weeks. Boil 4 onins (finely chopped) in 1.5 litres of water for 45 min. Throw through a sieve and drink a cup every 2 to 3 hours. Also take an onion and cut it in half. Cover in brown sugar and let it stand for a while. It will form a suryp. Take for soar throat. Good luck!!! xxx

Gargle with salt water frequently to kill the bacteria and get better faster. Also hot water with LEMON and PASTEURIZED honey will really soothe your throat, not to mention the Vitamin C in lemon and the immune system boosting properties of honey will help you get better faster. :) Just make sure the honey is pasteurized. My doctor told me unpasteurized honey can be dangerous. Good luck and hope you feel better. :)

Honey will sooth it, but gargling salt water kills bacteria.
