Sounds like you’re really dealing with an annoying throat infection. First up, Sitopaladi Churna mixed with honey is really pretty effective. It’s like this sweet tasting powder to help ease that dry throat feeling and irritation. I’d say take about 1 teaspoon mixed with honey and do it 3 times a day. It’s generally good for both dry infections and those accompanied with mucus. Helps balance Kapha dosha, a lot of times linked to throat issues.
You mentioned Mulethi (licorice root)? That’s another favourite! You can chew the sticks directly, it’s sort of soothing, but Mulethi tea can also work wonders. Just simmer a stick in water for 10-15 minutes and sip slowly, a couple of times a day. Def helps reduce inflammation and soothe that itchiness.
As for Patanjali Swasari Pravahi, it’s generally more for cough issues but does help moisturize the throat. If your throat is more on the dry side or hoarseness is bugging you, it might be handy. Just take about 1 tablespoon twice a day, after meals.
Turmeric milk before bed? Absolutely holds ups! It’s anti-inflammatory and can really calm down throat infections. Try adding a pinch of black pepper—it supposedly boosts turmeric’s effects. Heat some milk (or almond milk if preferred), mix in half teaspoon turmeric powder, a dash of pepper, maybe some honey or jaggery if you like it sweet, and drink it warm.
You’re also curious about ayurvedic throat sprays or lozenges. There’s something called Khadiradi Vati, it’s a lozenge that can relieve throat pain and dryness. You just suck on em—1 or 2 tablets in a day should help.
Ayurveda definitely leans on stuff that reduces stress and boosts immunity, so sippin ginger tea, doin’ gargles with warm salt water, and staying well hydrated with warm fluids is essential.
Hope that covers your bases, and always listen to your body what feels right, followin’ with some rest and care!
