When my throat hurts from drainage, I gargle with salt water to break up the mucus.

And I use a neti pot to flush out my nose so there is less drainage to come.

I hope you feel better soon!

water, lemon juice and some honey in a tea cup. Heat it up and sip it. Works GREAT for sore throats and coughs. I used that when I had bronchitis at 7 weeks preggo with Ash
