if you are waking up most of the time w/ a sore throat .......it tells me that it is more than likely one of two reasons....1, you are sleeping in a very dry atmosphere. or 2 you may be breathing through your mouth instead of your nose.........try sleeping w/a portable.....small humidifier running constantly as you are asleep .....that should help eliminate a sore throat....and also if you want to double checkyourself have someone verify that you are breathing through your mouth whike asleep.........usually the reason people breath through their mouth is the fact that it is too dry in the bedroom and your nose will dry out and cause it to stuff up in the night and you wont know it when asleep ,so therefore you automatically start breathing through the mouth...which is a big no no........also you can get an item at the drug store to place on your nose at night which will allow you to always breathe through your nose even though it is dry in the room,however the is some discomfort with the nose thing after awhile as it is actually prying your nostrills to stay open .....so I would try the humidifier first ....it will help you get over your dilema....
practice
Possibly getting a humidifier so that you can breathe a bit easier and your throat doesn't get all dried out.
Sore throat is usually due to a viral infection. Gargling with warm salty water or mouthwash can reduce the pain and inconvenience. You can find some good home remedies at http://ailments.in/sorethroat.html...
