Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 2 months old. At first, he said it hurts to swallow things. It was found that his voice is a bit hoarse when speaking, and it seems like he has had a low fever that hasn't gone away. Please ask: what should the child avoid eating if he has tonsillitis and difficulty swallowing?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, seeking medical attention immediately is very necessary. At the same time, parents should also pay attention to giving their child more vegetables and fruits. These foods are not only rich in vitamins and trace elements, which can help boost immunity, but they are also relatively light in flavor. For example, the peels of mandarins are rich in vitamin C, which has a good anti-inflammatory effect. It is recommended to choose foods that are easy to swallow and digest, such as congee. It is advised to drink more water, and also to eat or avoid foods that are considered "heating" or "stimulating," such as mutton and dog meat. Pediatric tonsillitis can lead to complications, which are very harmful to the child's health. Therefore, parents must ensure that their child receives proper treatment.
