Cold Fluids/Treats
Depending on your issue, cold fluids can play a role in easing a case of a dry throat. While it’s recommended to go for warmer fluids as there are so many teas and home remedies available involving warm fluids, it doesn’t mean that there’s no use for cold drinks or treats. Something like a popsicle can help with a dry throat, even if some people might urge you not to do so. The truth is that a dry throat has so many causes that the treatment can vary depending on the cause. There might be some situations, such as the flu or cold, where a dry throat might not benefit from cold drinks or treats. However, the cold won’t necessarily affect an allergic reaction, though it can potentially give a runny nose based on the symptoms.
The tactic is to use warm and cold in different situations to see if it helps ease your symptoms. Try eating a popsicle and see if it helps. Try drinking warm tea to see if it helps you more. Whichever gives you more relief, go for it.
