Answers:
Yes... kind of. It doesn't have any magic ingredients, it's just cold.

Put anything else in the freezer then take it out and place it against your throat (with the exception of a knife please) and it'll do the same job.

It just numbs the pain temporarily.

However, to prove a point, take the ice cream out the freezer let it melt and turn to Temperature, it's still what it was before but doesn't help your throat.Health Question & Answer

nope it only acts as temporary relief and is "supposed" to cool down the swelling. but as someone already said, when you finish eating it, your sore throat is still there.Health Question & Answer

It tends to make you feel better because you are eating something that is exhilarating to your taste buds and it does numb the pain with the cold. The question is what flavor do you want to help cure your sore throat..?Health Question & Answer
