What happens when we gurgle salt water for throat infections?

Question:

Answers:
it creates a protective coating

Other Answers:
It acts like a mild antibiotic.does not act like a coating. You can also soak an infected hand, foot, finger etc, in salt water to draw out the poisin. I once seen a healthcare worker who had a red line going from her finger up to her wrist (thats BAD, and can kill you if it travels up to your heart). Any way, this healthcare worker soaked her hand in salt water, and in an hour the red line had gone away.

It works like an antibiotic.

You are creating a salty environment that the infection can't live in.
