Patient's question:
My little girl, she is 3 years old. At first, she said her throat was sore. It was found that her voice was a bit hoarse when she spoke, and she also had a low fever. Please ask: What dietary principles should be followed if a child with tonsillitis cries a lot?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, it is very necessary to seek medical attention immediately. At the same time, parents should also pay attention to giving their children more vegetables and fruits. The reason for encouraging children to eat more vegetables and fruits is mainly to replenish vitamins and trace elements, help boost immunity, and aid in a quicker recovery. For example, the peel of kumquats, which is rich in vitamin C, has a very good anti-inflammatory effect. It is also recommended to choose some easily digestible foods, such as porridge or well-cooked noodles, which are suitable for children during their treatment. However, it is still important to note that spicy and stimulating foods, as well as certain "offensive" foods, are not recommended for children during this period. Parents should also help their children develop good eating habits, ensuring cleanliness and health, and avoiding pickiness or food preferences.
