Suggest Treatment For Sore Throat
Hi. I wanted to rinse out my mouth and gargled some hydrogen peroxide (I've very tired and wasn't thinking), but it spit it out in less than five seconds and rinsed out my mouth, but now my throat is very sore and feels very dry. What can I do to remedy this?

hello
the dryness and soreness is due to the hydrogen peroxide damaging the lining of your throat and will recover spontaneously in 2-3 days.There is no specific medication for this, just avoid hot and spicy food and take plenty of liquids.
Take care
