Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 4 months old. At first, she said it hurt when she swallowed things. She noticed that her cough also seemed quite severe, and now she has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: What should be noted in her diet if her tonsils are inflamed and she has sore throat?Doctor's answer:
It is essential to promptly treat a child for tonsillitis if it is detected. Additionally, their daily diet should include more vegetables and fruits. This is mainly because vegetables and fruits are not only light but also rich in various vitamins and trace elements needed by the body, which can clearly help children resist diseases. When it comes to fruits, it is generally recommended to choose those that are neutral in nature and rich in vitamins, such as honeysuckle and kiwifruit. In terms of daily meals, it should focus on being light, easy to digest, and easy to swallow, such as congee and noodles, which are excellent choices. While maintaining a light diet, it is also important to limit the intake of "trigger foods," such as poultry eggs, donkey meat, beef, and mutton. Parents should also help their children develop good eating habits, ensuring cleanliness, health, and avoiding pickiness or partiality in food choices.
