Patient's question:
My daughter is 2 years old. At first, she felt a sore throat when she started talking, and noticed that her cough seemed more severe as well. Additionally, it seems like her low-grade fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: what dietary restrictions should there be if the child has tonsillitis and keeps having a fever?Doctor's answer:
It is very important to help children with tonsillitis recover from eating as soon as possible. First, they should eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, as vegetables and fruits are not only light but also rich in various vitamins and trace elements needed by the body, which can obviously help children fight the disease. Examples include pears, apples, kumquats, and kiwis, all of which are good choices. In terms of other dietary advice, it is recommended to choose foods that are soft and easy to digest, such as well-cooked noodles and porridge. However, it is important to avoid spicy, irritating foods, as well as certain foods that may aggravate the condition during this stage. Children with tonsillitis may experience complications, which can be very harmful to their health. Therefore, parents must ensure that their children receive proper treatment.
