Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 2 months old, just starting out. When speaking, he feels a sore throat, and it's been found that swallowing seems a bit difficult. At the same time, it seems like a low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: When a child has tonsillitis and fever, what dietary precautions should be taken.Doctor's answer:
If a child suffers from 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. This is mainly because vegetables and fruits are not only light but also rich in various vitamins and trace elements that the human body needs, which can obviously help children resist the disease. Pears, kiwis, and honeysuckle are good choices, and they also have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. It is advisable to choose foods that are easy to swallow and digest, such as congee, which are excellent options. Additionally, it is important to avoid giving children "heat-generating" foods as much as possible, such as beef, lamb, dog meat, and seafood, as these can worsen the symptoms. In addition to cooperating with the doctor for the treatment of tonsillitis, parents should also help their children develop good eating and living habits, which can help them recover earlier.
