See a doctor!  Sounds like strep throat, which is high contagious and can lead to heart problems if left untreated for a long time.  In meantime, gargle with hot salty water (as hot as you can tolerate and quite salty).

it could be strep but I think it wise to go see your doctor for a more clear diagnosis. I think that you have no ordinary viral sore throat if you have had it for a while. If it has been a couple days gargle saltwater and take some medicine.

Honey with whiskey.  It's an old rememdy but it works.\n\nIf that won't work with you due to age or morals, try lots of peppermint tea.  Keep your throat covered at night, and make sure that it's comfortably warm in your bedroom.\n\nIf you're still having problems, or if it leads into an infection go to your doctor and ask for an antibiotic like Keflex or Zithromax.\n\nAlso, keep yourself super hydrated.  \n\nVitamin C is good for the immune system, but I know that when I've had colds a raw throat isn't good with orange juice, or any other fruits with "stearic acid" -- which is what Vitamin C is -- in it.\n\nTry Vitamin E.  It really will help.

Look at your throat in a well-lighted mirror.  If your tonsils look swollen or have white patches, definitely get it checked out.  You should also get it checked out if you are having difficulty swallowing (dysphagia).\n\nIt could just be nasal drainage.  Try sleeping with a humidifier tonight and drink lots of tea.  If it is still sore in a day or two with no new symptoms, then you may want to see your doctor.

Some people can eat or drink dairy all day and it won't bother them. That would be someone like me. :p\n\nHowever if you have been eating or drinking milk products you should be able to tell if it bothers you.\n\nHoney won't always help, it depends on the person as well.\n\n\nIt would be good to get voice lessons, but the reason you need voice lessons is because you need to learn how to sing on top of your air. I teach voice myself and Breath support is the number one thing you need to learn in order to help your voice. Posture helps too, but it all ties into breath support. It will allow you to sing for longer periods of time. You will also become stronger on the higher registers of your voice. \n\nThe reason warm ups isn't the magic cure is because You could sing warm ups incorrectly until you are blue in the face and it will never help your voice!\n\nIf you are experiencing a dry throat, the others are right, it is good to drink lots of liquids.\n\nIf you have anymore questions feel free to contact me! gatortenor27@yahoo.com

Sounds like you may have a sore throat that is causing the blood.  Try gargling with warm water with a little salt in it.

Most sore throats clear up on their own within three to 10 days. The majority of sore throats in adults are caused by viruses that the body fights off on its own. This means that a visit to the doctor is not usually necessary.\n\nI.A sore throat from a viral infection tends to develop gradually and to be relatively mild, usually clearing up in a day or two. \n\nII.On the other hand, bacterial infections such as strep throat often produce severe pain in a matter of hours and will need to be treated with prescription drugs. \n\nThe following vitamins, minerals, and herbs can be very useful for treating a sore throat. They can be taken with over-the-counter or prescription drugs for colds, allergies, and strep throat. \n\n1. Vitamin C with bioflavonoids - 3x/day\n\n2.Vitamin A promotes healing of the mucous membranes, such as those in the throat. \n\n3.Zinc lozenges, taken at the first sign of a cold-related sore throat, may help shorten its duration. \n\n4.Herbal teas brewed from "slippery elm" or "marshmallow root" will help ease an irritated throat. Both are effective at coating and soothing mucous membranes that have become inflamed. \n\n5.To boost your immunity, add a few drops of goldenseal tincture to your herbal tea. Goldenseal has long been valued for its ability to soothe inflamed or infected mucous membranes, and it is especially effective against bacterial infections. Gargling with a goldenseal tincture diluted in some warm water can also relieve sore throat pain. \n\nSelf-Care Remedies- \nGargle several times a day with a mixture of half a teaspoon of salt dissolved in a glass of warm water. \n\n Use a cool-mist humidifier to keep your nose and throat lubricated. Be sure to keep the unit clean, however, or you'll add harmful bacteria to the air you breathe. There are antibacterial solutions you can add to thwart bacterial growth. \n\nAvoid smoke. Lay off cigarettes for a while if you smoke. If you don't smoke, still try to avoid second-hand smoke. \n\nDrink at least six to eight 8-ounce glasses of liquids daily--especially warm ones, such as soup and herbal teas. Try to avoid caffeinated beverages (coffee, black tea, colas and other soft drinks) because these will dehydrate you. \n\nSuck on hard candy periodically. This will stimulate the saliva glands, keeping your throat moist.

Could be strep throat or just stress related. Take her to a practioner ASAP, as it also could be a serious earnose/throat infection.

As a medical student this is what I can think it may be:\n\n1) Have ur lymph nodes checked out.  There may be fluid in them.\n\n2) Check ur tonsils, maybe tonsilitis.... Do research on the palatine tonsils..(the 2 humps on the side of your mouth near the uvula)\n\n3) Get a baterial culture, like a strep test.  For all you know all you need is some good old penicillin.\n\n4) Do you have a fever?  IF so definitely get a strep test, and get blood work done to check for mono.\n\n5) Try and do salt + water gargles.  Salt is a good anticeptic.  Also mouthwash regualarly, it'll help to kill some bacteria.\n\nHope you feel better.... Again I'm only a medical student and not a doctor.  Sry, if my spelling is horrible... was never good at it.

you didn't mention your age or sex or if you smoked.\nbut all that aside sounds like you should have your throat looked at.  in the meantime try sipping on tea with honey and rest your voice as much as possible.  if you smoke....STOP!

Make sure that the Sore throat is not caused by some other source than your usaul cough and flu.\n\n\n\nfor example make sure it is not a STD of some sort.\nYour Doctor is best to ask of course.
