Gargling with warm salt water might help. Tea with lemon can help too.

It's a sore throat, if it hurts too much ask your mom to take you to the doctor. It might be strep throat, I'm going through the same thing. Some remedies: Hot chocolate/hot milk with honey is good Any hot beverage I guess.

Your neck muscles are tight and pressing into your throat to give you the pain you are having there. It is keeping the muscles from moving and the pressure on the muscles is the pain you do feel. to get rid of the pain you have to free up your neck muscles and here's how to do that: Neck Put your hands alongside your head so your thumbs are on the front of the muscle under your ear and your fingers are on the back of the muscle behind your neck. Squeeze your thumb and fingers together and hold. Relax your body. When your fingers and thumb touch, about two minutes, slowly lower your head as far as you can, release the pressure but hold your neck lowered for another 30 seconds. For best results relax your body first by taking a deep breath and exhaling then remain this relaxed.

Ya I would say strep throughout I had the same thing talk to your doctors and they will give you white pills called codeine they work great

strep throat. see http://ezinearticles.com/?Effective-Home-Remedies-for-Strep-Throat&id=225748 but for strep throat i would suggest seeing a doctor. the home remedies don't work nearly as good. if you do go to the doctor, be sure to ask for the childs medication. It'll be almost impossible to swallow water, let alone pills

first of all try drinking a cup a large cup of water and when i say drink i mean TAKE A BIG GULP just put a large drink of water in your mouth, then swallow it all in gulp. if you feel pain then you feel a bit better, its just a common bug or virus ( or maybe strep). I would get these really frequently in winter (i had one 2 weeks ago) i wake up and feel like $hit. my nose feels like a faucet and its so swollen its hard to breath. i simple clean out my nose and take big gulps of WARM water. See if that helps. if not... probably a good idea to see a doctor...

To me NOT a DR it sounds like maybe you tonsils and adenoids. You might want to call you dr.
