Yes, do, citrus helps these things, but warm salt water gargles do, too; they help clean out the pus and such.

A friend of mine uses something called hell in a jar, when her or her family get strept throat. She swears by it. I have never used it personally but certainly wouldn't hesitate trying it if I had a sore throat or strep. If you're interested I could get the recipe and pm you with it.

ginger tea
garlic tea (eat the garlic)
warm saltwater gargle (very helpful!)
lemon/honey/tea
vitamin C
zinc
ocillococcinum
probiotics (they're not just for digestion, they are a line of defense against bad bugs)
