Patient's question:
Boy, 13 years old, in primary school. At first, he said it hurt when he swallowed, and it was noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when he spoke, accompanied by a low fever. Question: What can the child eat more when tonsillitis is swollen and red?Doctor's answer:
If a child has tonsillitis, the diet should first be kept light, with vegetables and fruits as the main components. Vegetables and fruits are relatively rich in nutrients, which can help boost the child's immunity effectively. When choosing fruits, it is generally recommended to opt for those with a balanced nature and rich in vitamins, such as honeysuckle and kiwifruit. In daily meals, easily digestible foods like congee and noodles should be selected. At the same time, parents should pay attention not to let the child eat spicy or irritating foods, as well as dairy products. Childhood tonsillitis can lead to complications, which are very harmful to the child's health. Therefore, parents must help their child receive proper treatment.
