Patient's question:
Boy, 13 years old, in primary school. At first, he said he had pain when swallowing, noticed mild coughing, and also had low fever. Question: What are the dietary precautions for children with tonsillitis and fever?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis, diet is also a very crucial aspect. It is recommended that moms can encourage their children to consume more vegetables and fruits. These foods are not only rich in vitamins and trace elements, which can help boost the immune system, but they are also relatively light in flavor. For example, orange peels, which are rich in vitamin C, have a good anti-inflammatory effect. Additionally, it is advisable to choose some easily digestible foods for the child, such as thin porridge or well-cooked noodles. It is also important to drink plenty of boiled water and eat less "heating" foods like beef, mutton, and dog meat. Seafood is best consumed in moderation or avoided altogether. At the same time, it is important to help children overcome picky eating and poor appetite habits to ensure comprehensive nutrient absorption.
