Swab throat with iodine---never fails to kill a sore throat, so just'the "sniffles" are left.

When we were kids (I have 2 sisters) and we would get a sore throat our parents would say "lets get the paint" and they would paint our tonsils with the iodine in the medicine cabinet and to date not one of us has ever had to have our tonsils removed

Our family did the same thing, painting our throats with iodine at first sign of sore throat. I still do it and it works great!
