Patient's question:
My little girl is 7 years old. At first, she said her throat hurt, and then we noticed she had a mild cough. Additionally, she had a low fever. Could you please advise on what to pay attention to regarding crying and diet for young children with tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
tonsillitis is one of the more common diseases at present, requiring timely treatment. While being treated, it's important to feed the child some vegetables and fruits. Vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamins, which help boost immunity. However, when choosing fruits, it's important to avoid those that are too cold. Opt for milder options, such as apples or kiwis. Daily diet should also focus on easy-to-digest and swallow foods, so it's recommended to prioritize porridge and noodle-based dishes. The noodles should be cooked until very soft. It's also advisable to drink plenty of water. Additionally, avoid or minimize consumption of "heating" foods like lamb or dog meat. For treating tonsillitis, in addition to following the doctor's advice, parents should also help their children develop good eating and lifestyle habits, which can aid in early recovery.
