When a child suffers from a sore throat it is essential to give them painkillers appropriate for their age. Ibuprofen is a good choice. It is sold under different names in different countries and has a anti-inflammatory function.
Lozenges come in all shapes and flavors. To prevent choking it may be wise to give a child the lollipop type that comes on a stick. Tea tree oil is known for its powerful anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties and some manufacturers have a whole range of products, including lozenges, available.
Gargle with salt water. One teaspoon of salt in a glass of tepid water will bring some relief from the pain. Be sure that a child is able to gargle with plain water before attempting it with salt or other medication in. Six drops of Tea tree oil in a glass of water will help relief pain and at the same time target viruses 
and bacteria.
Herbal tea with honey and lemon will sooth a sore throat and help get rid of mucus at the back of the throat.
Fluids are essential to keep mucus thin. To help a child take in extra fluids it may help to give them ice lollies or Popsicles. Acidic drinks such as citrus juice thickens phlegm. Dilute fruit juice with lots of water opt for softer juice such as pear, apple and cranberry.
Throats tend to become less sore in humid atmosphere. Putting a humidifier in a child’s room will also help calm a cough. Keep in mind that humidifiers are perfect breeding grounds for bacteria and viruses. Be sure to stick to cleaning instructions.
Honey has long been known for it’s anti-bacterial properties and helps brings relief for a sore throat. A child can have a few teaspoons of honey per day.
Colloidal silver has been used for years due to it’s anti-microbial working. It does wonders 
for throat, sinus and ear infections and can be obtained from most health shops or chemists. Use a spray bottle to spray in the back of a child’s throat. This is a good option for small children who can not gargle yet. If a child struggles from a sinus infection Colloidal Silver can be sprayed into the nose too.
Tonzolyt is a homeopathic tablet that brings relief from tonsillitis and prevents infection from spreading to the ears and chest. The small white tablets are safe to give to small children.
