You go to a doctor and he will give you an antibiotic which takes a fortnight to work.

sure it helps if it's viral(which is more than 80% of flus),hot salty water or even doing nothing - the sore throat will go away in 3 days.(if you have normal defence mech).
not so with bacterial infection,without antibiotics-you may have a acute renal failure since bacterial infection is not stopped by hot water or symtomatic relievers like tylonol and so on.
