Patient's question:
Baby boy, just turned 6 months old. At first, he said it hurts to swallow things, noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when speaking, and also had a low fever. Please ask: What can children with tonsillitis and high fever eat more of?Doctor's answer:
If a child has tonsillitis, it is important to maintain a light diet first. Vegetables and fruits should be the main components, as they are rich in nutrients that can help boost the child's immunity and aid in the healing of the tonsils. For fruits, pears and apples are recommended, while for vegetables, options like green vegetables, cabbage, and tomatoes are excellent choices. You can select based on your child's preferences. In daily meals, prioritize light, easily digestible, and easy-to-swallow foods, such as porridge and noodles. It is also advisable to drink plenty of water. Additionally, avoid or limit foods that may exacerbate the condition, such as mutton or dog meat. Lastly, it is important to help your child develop good eating habits.
