Patient's question:
Female baby, only 9 months old, just starting out. She says that even drinking water feels painful in her throat. She noticed that her voice is a bit hoarse when she speaks. At the same time, it seems like she hasn't had a fever for a while, but it hasn't gone away either. Please ask: If the child has tonsillitis and has no appetite, what are the dietary principles?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. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins and trace elements, and they are relatively light in flavor, so they are very helpful in the treatment of the disease. Options include pears, watermelon, kumquats, and pomegranates. For vegetables, green leafy greens and tomatoes are excellent choices. It is also advisable to give the child some easily digestible foods, such as thin porridge or well-cooked noodles. Additionally, it is important to drink plenty of plain water, but avoid foods that may exacerbate the condition, such as seafood and dog meat. At the same time, it is also necessary to help the child overcome picky eating and poor appetite habits to ensure comprehensive nutrient absorption.
