What should I do if my throat is sore

If you want to effectively solve the problem of sore throat, you should pay attention to the causes. For example, you should pay attention to the common problems of sore throat or tonsillitis. You can improve it through some dietary therapy methods, such as mashing green fruits and white radishes and soaking them in water instead of tea, which has a better effect.

(1) Sore throat: squeeze 500g of fresh water chestnuts and drink the juice, 100ml each time, twice a day, for 3 consecutive days to be effective; mash 30-60g of fresh amaranth to extract the juice or decoct it in water, add sugar or honey to mix well, drink it with boiled water, 2-3 times a day, for several days to be effective. This recipe is also suitable for tonsillitis; boil 30-50g of okra flowers or roots in water to make a soup, remove the residue and add appropriate amount of rock sugar, gargle and drink slowly, 3-4 times a day, for several days to be effective. This recipe is also suitable for cough, sore throat and acute tracheitis; take 3g of persimmon frost each time, dissolve in warm water, 3-4 times a day.

(2) Sore throat: Crush green fruit and white radish, soak in boiling water and drink frequently instead of tea; 100 grams of green olive flesh (pitted), boil into a thick paste, add 50 grams of alum, and boil again to make a thick paste, 2 to 3 grams each time, dissolve in warm water, and drink several times a day; soak green plums in salt, drain, take large crickets and put them in the salt, soak them, and drink after they are dissolved.

(3) Treat various throat diseases: In the twelfth lunar month, put an appropriate amount of mung beans into the gallbladder of a male pig. Hang it in a shady place until after the Grain Rain Festival of the following year. Take out the mung beans, add a little musk and borneol, grind them into a fine powder, and store it in a bottle for later use. First, use a needle to prick the shoulder point (see Figure 3-12) to induce bleeding, then boil a large bowl of mung bean soup, add red and white sugar, and let the patient drink it to make him sweat. Then use a reed tube to blow the medicine onto the affected area to make the patient drool, and the pain will be cured. This method has been used to treat more than a hundred people and has indeed been very effective.

(4) To treat sore throat: Crack two eggs, 15 grams of sugar, and a few drops of sesame oil. Mix the three ingredients together and take on an empty stomach. It is very effective.
