Patient's question:
Baby girl, only 7 months old, just starting, a little sore throat, noticed, coughing is quite severe, also, it seems like a low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: what dietary precautions should be taken if the child has tonsillitis and sore throat?Doctor's answer:
It is very important for children with tonsillitis to recover their appetite as soon as possible. First, they should eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, as they are relatively rich in nutrients and can help boost their immunity. For example, the peels of honeysuckle fruits are rich in vitamin C, which has a strong anti-inflammatory effect. Daily diet should also be easy to digest and swallow, so it is recommended to consume porridge and noodles as the main foods. The noodles must be cooked until they are soft and fine. It is also advised to drink plenty of water. Additionally, avoid or limit the consumption of "stimulating" foods such as mutton and dog meat. Finally, parents should help their children develop good habits, maintain a regular schedule, engage in appropriate exercise, and enhance their immunity. This can significantly reduce the incidence of the disease.
