I Woke Up With A Sore Throat

Woke up from nap with sore throat?

I don't think it was from your chicken sandwich. What can usually cause sore throats while you sleep is if you breathe through the mouth, that can produce throat dryness and soreness. Also a sore throat can also be caused by bacteria. The two most common bacteria to cause a sore throat are Streptococcus (which causes strep throat) and Arcanobacterium haemolyticum. Arcanobacterium causes sore throats mainly in young adults and is sometimes associated with a fine red rash. Hope this helps.

I woke up with a really bad sore throat......?

You could try taking some medicine for the symptoms before they get worse. Robitussin is good for a soar throat, or you could try some Airborne. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon!!!

Waking up with sore throat?

For the past week or so I've been waking up every morning with a sore throat and a little bit of an itch in my throat.. This morning I also had a stuffy nose. The sore throat goes away after an hour or so, and doesn't come back until late at night or the next morning. I have my usual energy and appetite throughout the day, and don't feel sick or like I have a cold (except in the mornings).

I had a 10 day cold only 3 or 4 weeks ago, felt better for one or two weeks, and then got this. I did make-out with a girl 11 days ago, and started feeling the sore throat in the mornings only two days after, but from what I know of she hasn't been sick since. Regardless, if it is a cold, I could have gotten it from something else.

Do I have a cold, or is this allergy to pollen or something? If it is an allergy to pollen, how much longer will this last? I've never been allergic to pollen before.

Wake up with sore throat in the morning?

For the last two nights, I wake up during the night with a very sore throat and the same in the morning. I can drink water which eases the pain for a little while and then its back. Once I wake up it normally goes after a few hours.

Winter is starting for us here so all the doors and windows are closed so there is no draft. Last night I even slept with a T-shirt on thinking that would help in case there was one, but didn't make a difference. But I do get very hot at night and sweat (with and without a t-shirt)

Any idea what is causing this and what I can do to prevent it?
And how to treat it?

Thanks...

Why do you wake up with a sore throat if you sleep with a fan pointed at your face?

I think it may have something to do with being asleep,since your not awake your not lubricating your throat via swallowing as much as you would if you where awake,you would be aware of having a dry throat and swallow..that's my take on it be it logic or science.

I just woke up with a sore throat buy have to sing in 2 hours!! Help?

Herbal tea.

If you don't have herbal tea just use any ordinary tea.

Do not add milk.

Use honey instead of sugar.

Add a slice of lemon or squize some into the cup.

Add some grated ginger if you have any.

Hope your ok :)

Oh...cough sweets...the honey ones are good too.

I wake up every morning with a sore throat?

The good news is that it's almost definitely environmental. This is good because your body isn't actually sick so you just have to figure out what is causing the problem.

It could be allergies (cured with an air purifier, dusting up, or kicking fido out of the house; or maybe something not so easy to clean out like mold growing in the wall). It could be that the air is too dry, or too moist. Or it could be that your body isn't warm enough or cold enough at night.

Try sleeping in a different room of the house, or in another house to see if that fixes the problem. Doing this will also help you narrow down the cause of your discomfort.

It could also be something as simple as violent snorring as you sleep. Snorring can make your throat sore when excessive.

But you're not dying. Hang in there.
