Safe options: If you have a significantly sore throat w swollen tonsils / lymph nodes – see your obstetrician & get a streph throat test & culture. Saltwater gargles are very helpful. Mix a teaspoon of salt in 8 oz of warm water – gargle with this several times a day. A mixture of chamomile tea with honey & a small amount of lemon juice is good for a sore throat too.
