I've been in this situation a few times!. so I sympathize!.

1!. go on vocal rest(aka no singing or talking)
2!. sleep, sleep, sleep, and more sleep!.
3!. drink lots of water
4!. there's this stuff called Clear Voice, and its like aloe for your vocal chords!. It works wonders!!! You can usually find it at any local music store!.
5!. Gargle with warm salt water a few times every half hour!. It kills all the germs in your throat!.

Good Luck!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well, you may not be able to do much about it, but!.!.!.

1!. Rest your voice!.!. don't talk, don't sing,
2!. Rest your body!.!.!. get some sleep
3!. Drink tea with lemon
4!. Fisherman's friends are always good to try!.
5!. Tonight, before bed you may want to take some Niquil if you are not on any other medications (the liquid)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Rest your voice, sleep, hot water + lemon, gargle salt water, drink LOTs of water, don't "clear" your throat just cough, and ALWAYS take Air Born 2 to 3 weeks every day before you have auditionsWww@QuestionHome@Com
