Diet

Drink plenty of water. It may feel difficulty drinking water while you have sore throat. Drink water warm to avoid the difficulty drinking water.

Never take cold food as it can act as a stimulant for the throat to respond unfavorably. Take food moderately warm.

Lifestyle

Properly cover your throat when going out in cold climate. Don't go out in hot climate too. That too is not good for persons suffering from sore throat.

Avoid smoking (and smokers) - active and passive smoking is harmful.
