warm tea with honey will soothe your throat and rest, don't even try to speak...your vocal cords are inflamed, so using them will make it worse.

pineapple has an enzyme in it that is good for the throat.
Also, don't whisper. that strains your chords more. If you have to speak, just talk normally.

works for me. It's acidic in a not to acidic way and will clear some of the schputz that's there alleviating the irritiation while soothing it.
The real deal is just not talking. I'm sure you are coughing and probably have an irritation of your pharynx.

take care and don't over do it. Have him get your some pineapple juice. A little goes a long way. either way, it has what you need.
