Patient's question:
Baby boy, just turned one month old. At first, his throat felt a bit sore, and he was noticed to have a slightly hoarse voice when talking. Now, he has a high fever that won't break. Please ask: If the child has tonsillitis and keeps having a fever, what should be paid attention to in his diet?Doctor's answer:
If a child has tonsillitis, it is important to maintain a light diet. Vegetables and fruits should be the main components, as many fruits have the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, and are rich in vitamins, which can help boost immunity and resist diseases. Fruits like pears and apples, for example, have the effects of clearing heat and reducing inflammation, and can be eaten in moderation. When it comes to staple foods, it is best to choose soft and fine options, such as porridge or noodles, to avoid affecting swallowing or worsening constipation. At the same time, parents should pay attention not to let their children eat spicy or greasy foods. Parents should also help their children develop good eating habits, ensuring cleanliness and health, and avoiding picky or biased eating habits.
