Sore throat: For significant sore throat with swollen tonsils / lymph nodes – see physician & get a strep throat test / culture. Saltwater gargles: Mix 1 tsp salt in 8 oz warm water – gargle several times a day. Consider making tea with 2 tsp of Marshmallow root bark per 1cup of hot water (steep in a covered pot for at least 5 minutes). Drink several times a day or as needed to relieve throat pain.
