It is important to promptly treat tonsillitis in children. Additionally, the daily diet should include more vegetables and fruits, as they are rich in vitamins that can help boost the immune system and alleviate symptoms. For example, the peels of kumquats are rich in vitamin C, which has excellent anti-inflammatory properties. It is advisable to choose foods that are easy to swallow and digest, such as porridge. Drinking plenty of water is also recommended. Additionally, it is best to avoid or limit the consumption of foods that are considered "heating" or, such as lamb or dog meat.
