How to clear throat? My voice is literally gone, its coming out as a whisper HELP!?


Question:
I think theres some mucus on my throat, is there anything out there i can try? Coughing isnt doing much.

Answers:
Try gargling some salt water. Teaspoon of salt to 8 oz warm water.
It depends on what's causing the problem . . . If you have a lot of gunk (phlegm) coating your throat, an over-the-counter med (like Guaifenesin, Robitussin, Mucinex, etc) might help loosen it up. But, if it's something else (allergies, strep throat, etc), the remedies will be different. If it's just that you've lost your voice (a great night out singing?), then try some zinc lozenges - they help w/ plain old laryngitis. BUT, the best thing to do is check w/ a pharmacist &/or doctor - they're the best ones to give you medical advice. Good Luck :o)
