A natural remedy I've found very helpful, though it sounds weird, is a tea made of ginger, red hot pepper and honey. It burns going down, but then it numbs everything and feels much better.

I agree with Babycakes...Gargle with warm salt water. Chloraseptic helps too although it tastes gross, it numbs your throat. If you start to run a fever make sure you see a doctor. It could become serious.

Well, they do make lozenges but I was talking about the spray. It's a liquid that comes in a spray bottle. You spritz it in your mouth.

Gargle salty water a few times a day. Drink tea. See if the soreness is related to another medical ailment and cure that if it is.

Apple cider vinegar in water. About a 25% strength. And yes it is good for you to drink.
