Patient's question:
Boy, already 3 years old. At first, he felt sore when drinking water, noticed that his cough seemed to be quite severe too, and he had been slightly feverish for a while. Please ask: What dietary precautions should be taken if a child with tonsillitis has no appetite?Doctor's answer:
For the disease of pediatric tonsillitis, it is recommended to start with daily diet for regulation. You can let the child eat more fresh vegetables and fruits. The nutritional content in vegetables and fruits is relatively rich, which can help improve the child's immunity and thus contribute to the healing of tonsils. For example, pears can be eaten. Pears are cool in nature and have the effects of reducing fever, soothing the throat, resolving phlegm, and relieving pain, which can alleviate the symptoms of acute tonsillitis in the throat. In daily diet, easily digestible foods should be chosen, such as congee and noodles. While maintaining a light diet, it is also necessary to eat fewer allergenic foods, such as poultry eggs, donkey meat, and beef or mutton. In addition to following the doctor's advice for treating tonsillitis, parents should also help the child develop good eating and living habits, which can help the child recover earlier.
