I have tonsilitis right now and my throat is killing me too... knives and more. Ive been drinking a lot of tea with lemon and honey, gargling with sal****er, sucking on lozenges and nyquil and sudaphed. Its not 100 but I find it is no worse than when I had the nsaids :)

Gargle with warm sal****er. Its nasty but it will kill that sore throat for you. Warning... I had a sore throat and it turned into a horrible body flu with fever.
