Patient's question:
My little girl is 5 years old. At first, she said her throat hurts. I noticed that her cough seems to be quite severe, and she has had a slight fever all along. Please ask: What should children eat during the treatment if they have tonsillitis and cry?Doctor's answer:
If a child suffers from tonsillitis, it is very necessary to seek medical attention immediately. At the same time, parents should also pay attention to giving their child more vegetables and fruits, as many fruits have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, and are rich in vitamins, which can help improve immunity and resist diseases. Pears, watermelon, kumquats, and pomegranates are good choices. For vegetables, green leafy greens and tomatoes are excellent options. For staple foods, it is best to choose relatively soft and fine options, such as congee or noodles, to avoid affecting swallowing or worsening constipation and the condition. While maintaining a light diet, it is also important to eat less "forbidden" foods, such as poultry, eggs, donkey meat, beef, and mutton. In daily life, it is also necessary to help children develop good habits. In addition to a healthy diet, they should also maintain a regular sleep schedule, go to bed early and wake up early, and engage in appropriate exercise.
