Omg, thank God I didn't take ibuprofen ! I didn't know it was a big no no
I'm going to try honey with lemon and warm water to see if it soothes my throat a little bit, thanks guys! (:

Honey, lemon water with a little bit of cinnamon Helps a sore throat a lot. It's best to use raw organic honey. Other than that Tylenol and cough drops.

You are not suppose to take ibuprofen. Only extra strength Tylenol.

I thought that ibuprofen was a huge no no on the list of things we could take.
Take a Tylenol and drink lots of water and some honey. Warm water with honey and lemon is great. Fresh ginger tea also reduces inflammation and may help your throat.
Good luck.
