Warm Salt Water

As you may have already known, we cannot get antibiotic here without prescription. And, seems that the doctors here are not easily convinced that you need one either. 

Therefore, whenever we feel uncomfortable at our throat(when it is still at the initial stage of infection), we shall gargle it with warm salt water.  And, this is repeated about 4-5 times a day.  However, once after wake up and once before bed time is a must.  This should be repeated until the discomfort goes off.

Actually, Dr Lechimi advised me before, but I just put it behind my mind as at that time, sore throat problem can easily be solved by antibiotic.

Warm salt water is really effective to cure phlegm and sore throat.  And, you can also spray it into the nostril to clear the phlegm as well.

Of course if the symptoms persist(especially with the greem phlegm), you are advise to see a doctor!!
