SORE THROAT
Treatment - Herbal Medicines
Salt water gargles or gargles of tincture of sage, thyme or myrrh can ease sore throats. 

Or you can try three drops of eucalyptus, one of tea tree and two of sandalwood oil, either gargled in a glass of water or mixed in a tablespoon of carrier oil or lotion and rubbed around the throat and behind the ears. Do it three times during the day and before going to bed.

TONSILLITIS
Children are the most common victims of tonsillitis, a highly infectious inflammation of the tonsils - two masses of tissue at the back of the throat. The complaint causes a sore throat and fever, sometimes accompanied by a headache and stomach ache. In addition, the neck glands are frequently swollen and there may be a dry cough.

Tonsillitis is usually caused by a virus against which children have not had time to develop resistance. However, it may also be the result of bacteria called streptococci, of which some people are carriers, even though they themselves may be perfectly healthy. Streptococcal tonsillitis with a rash which first appears on the neck and chest is called scarlet fever.
