Coping with a sore throat is not an easy task. A sore throat can be caused by a bacterial infection, which stems from flu-like symptoms - fever chills and aches.

throat, eating is the last thing that attracts you. But eating nutritious foods can fuel your body by giving you enough energy to recover quickly. Today, we have listed for you the top 10 foods, which will give you enough nutrients to fight off illnesses and fight that annoying sore throat.

Bananas
A non-acidic fruit, banana is a soft fruit that is gentle on your throat. It is quite easy to swallow, especially when you have a sore throat. Along with this, this low glycemic index food is also rich in vitamins, B6, potassium, and of course, vitamin C.

Chicken soup
An age-old remedy for fighting sore throats, a hot bowl of chicken soup beats antibiotics. Chicken soup has mild anti-inflammation properties and helps in relieving congestion by limiting the viruses that come in contact with mucus membranes. Make your chicken soup full of nutrient-rich carrots, onions, celery, turnips, sweet potatoes and garlic, all of which are known for their nutritional benefits and healing powers.

Lemon juice and honey mixture
Lime and honey mixture makes for an excellent throat relieving alternative. A great remedy for inflamed throats, your sore throat will soon feel better as the inflammation reduces. This mixture will also cool down your aggravated throat apart from thinning any congestion.

Scrambled eggs or egg whites
Easy to digest bland proteins, scrambled eggs or egg white helps in dealing with inflammation and the pain of sore throat. However, make sure you do not load the dish with spices as it can worsen the pain.

Ginger, or honey tea
A superb way to calm an irritated and itchy throat, a hot cuppa of ginger or honey tea is a great way of aiding your throat to feel better. Sip tea when inhaling the steam from the cup, and it will aid in loosening congestion and tightness of the chest. Honey will coat the throat and will help in preventing irritation, which is the main reason behind coughing fits.

Oatmeal
High in soluble fiber, oatmeal helps in lowering 'bad' LDL cholesterol levels and is high in protein content too, which keep you content and satisfied for a longer period of time. Make a hot bowl of oatmeal by adding banana or honey and you will surely get enough soothing qualities for your sore throat. Another star quality of oatmeal resides in the fact that it is a low-glycemix index food, thus an ideal pre-snack meal before hitting your daily workout routine.

Red Sage
Known to have healing properties, red sage (Lal Behman) has been used as a medicinal herb since earlier times for sore throat remedies. It contains oxygen-handling enzymes, flavonoids, and phenolic acid. Added to tea or soups, sage has an excellent taste and makes great flavoured food items when added.

Whole wheat pasta
Eating soft wheat pasta is a great way to treat a sore throat. Especially, if the pasta is hot and is made in a low-fat sauce. Other than this, whole wheat pasta is also full of many nutrients, including fiber, iron, zinc, and vitamins B1, B2, B3, and E.

Boiled carrots
Carrots are superb as remedy food when you're sick, but they should be boiled or steamed before eating. This is because eating raw carrots can be risky for your sore throat and can further aggravate the pain. Other than this, carrots are also full of nutrients, such as vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin K, fiber and potassium.

Stomatitis and Unani Treatment

Oral inflammation and ulcers, known as stomatitis, may be mild and localized or severe and widespread. They are invariably painful. Stomatitis may involve swelling and redness of the oral mucosa or discrete, painful ulcers (single or multiple). Less commonly, whitish lesions form, and, rarely, the mouth appears normal (burning mouth syndrome) despite significant symptoms. Symptoms hinder eating, sometimes leading to dehydration and malnutrition. Secondary infection occasionally occurs. Some conditions are recurrent. Stomatitis may be caused by local infection, systemic disease, a physical or chemical irritant, or an allergic reaction. many cases are idiopathic. Because the normal flow of saliva protects the mucosa against many insults, xerostomia predisposes the mouth to stomatitis of any cause. The  most common specific causes overall include Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS)—also called recurrent aphthous ulcers (RAU) Viral infections, particularly herpes simplex an
