What to do if you have a sore throat after running?

The sore throat after running may be caused by the body being unable to bear the sudden exercise due to lack of exercise, or breathing through the mouth due to difficulty in breathing during running, which leads to dry and sore throat, or something else getting into the throat, etc. You can drink some warm salt water or lemon honey water after exercise to relieve the symptoms.

Warm salt water

Salt helps kill bacteria and fight infection, and gargling with warm salt water after a run can help relieve the discomfort of a swollen throat. It also flushes mucus from the mouth, helping to relieve a sore throat.

Warm water

If you have a sore throat due to dehydration after running, you can drink an appropriate amount of warm water after finishing running and resting for a while. This can help replenish the water lost by the body, moisten the throat, relieve throat discomfort, and speed up metabolism to help detoxify the body.

Lemon Honey Water

Honey not only contains beneficial vitamins, but also helps improve immunity. Natural honey contains a lot of antioxidants, which is more effective than cough syrup in relieving sore throat; lemon helps contract mucous membranes. You can add 1 tablespoon of honey to 1 cup of warm tea and squeeze the juice of half a lemon into it.

Daily diet conditioning

If you have a sore throat after running, you can eat more fruits and vegetables containing vitamins, eat less cold food, and avoid spicy food and other irritating foods to the throat, which can easily aggravate the pain in the throat.

Keep exercising

In fact, in most cases, sore throat is caused by lack of exercise. If you exercise regularly, this situation will rarely occur. New friends joining Wanbu Club! Keep checking in!
