As a kid, I always remember my mom have me do this when I had strep. So since my throat has been sore, I've been doing it throughout the day.
Why does it help?? I've always been curious.
And my doctor suggested I add a tablespoon of baking soda to the salt water and gargle with that too.
Never heard of that before.
