Patient's question:
Boy, already 6 years old, at first, he said his throat was sore, and it was found that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. Additionally, he now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: What dietary precautions should be taken when the child has tonsillitis and is not feeling well?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis, diet is also a very important aspect. It is recommended that moms give their children more vegetables and fruits. The reason for encouraging children to eat more vegetables and fruits is mainly to supplement vitamins and trace elements, which helps to improve immunity and recover quickly. Options such as pears, kiwis, and honeysuckle are suitable choices, as they also have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. It is also advisable to choose some easily digestible foods, such as porridge or well-cooked noodles, which are very suitable for children during treatment. Additionally, foods that are stimulating and spicy, such as spicy hot pot or hotpot, as well as allergenic foods, such as beef, lamb, and seafood, should not be given to children. Finally, it is also important to help children develop good dietary habits.
