Sore throat :o(

Any advice for foods to eat/ stay away from?

Usually I drink hot water with lemon juice & honey and stuff myself full of Strepsils.

It might be best to avoid foods that are hard to chew or swallow such as crunchy cereals,crackers etc.. and highly acidic foods such as citrus fruits.Eating very hot/cold food may also irritate your throat.

Foods to eat: canned fruit,soup,casseroles,stews.,jello,omlettes etc.. any soft food or food that has been soaked e.g cereal soaked in milk.

Hope I Helped-lemon juice and honey is a good pain reliever!

Get Well Soon :)

I love soup, cream of wheat, and milk with just some plain bread.

Get well soon ^^

Thanks :o) Had a lot of soup today!

Drink anise with honey.. really helps.

Get well soon.

I used to get strep all the time... I would take ibuprofen then when it started working I'd eat yogurt, pb&js, cheese, bananas, apple sauce, soup.  Soft foods.  But I'd always start with the ibuprofen for the swelling & pain.

Good luck & get better!

I've heard that honey makes your throat worse.....it is a good environment to grow bacteria or something.  So I would reccomend to stay away from the honey! I always like popsicles or fudsiglces when I have a sore throat.....

When I have a sore/irritated throat it unfortunately makes me want to keep eating because it feels better.

It might sound a little weird, but a tablespoon of brandy always helps. It sort of works like a cough syrup, and it makes your body warm up all over.

foods to eat:

• yogurt
• frozen yogurt
• oatmeal
• soft fruit that's already cut up so it's not hard for you to bite
• pudding
• applesauce
• soup
• pasta + sauce
• warm beverages

foods to avoid:

• anything hard/crunchy (cold cereal, sandwiches, nuts, popcorn, pretzels, rice cakes, etc)
• things that take alot of swallowing aka sticky foods (marshmallows, peanut butter, etc)
