Sore throats often feel like the most painful symptom you could possibly have. The most common cause of a sore throat is a viral infection, however bacterial and fungal infections may also occur. If a fever is present then it is most likely a bacterial infection. Sore throats are annoying and painful, so it is important to treat immediately. Dr. Metcalfe recommends having Natural Solutions available as part of your personal medicine kit to treat them quickly. The best approach for treating a sore throat is localized and systemic treatment. You should also start some natural preventative treatment if you are exposed to others with a sore throat as it is often contagious.
