Pain, scratching, difficult swallowing and hoarseness are some of the symptoms of colds and upper respiratory tract infections. To relieve sore throat, analgesic and anti-inflammatory lozenges, aerosols or gargles can be used. Syrups coating the throat mucosa and plant preparations, e.g. with sage, thyme or coltsfoot, may also be helpful.
