Is it normal for a sever sore throat to go away with soda?

I have had a sore throat for the last 2 days. So today, last period of school, i went and got a can of diet soda. About half-way through i noticed my throat didint hurt anymore when i coughed or swallowed my spit. I tried drinking water the night before but that just made it worse. So is it normal that diet pepsi curers soar throats? If so then nyquil can kiss my ass.

Is It Normal?

  • Maybe for a short period of time...but if its an infection or cold, Im assuming it will continue. Just an FYI, lemon/honey tea makes sore throats feel better too :)

  • Normal if it was cold. That's why doctors advise eating ice cream after getting your tonsils removed.

  • It doesn't cure a sore throat, but it will make it feel better. Best to see your doctor in the case of infection.
