Patient's question:
Boy, who is already 6 years old, initially said that he felt pain when swallowing. It was noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when talking, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: What should be noted about crying and diet for young children with tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment for tonsillitis, the child's daily diet should primarily be light. It's advisable to consume more vegetables and fruits, as many fruits have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, and are rich in vitamins, which can help boost immunity and resist illness. Fruits like pears and apples, for instance, have properties that clear heat and reduce inflammation, and can be eaten more frequently. In terms of dietary choices, it's best to opt for easily digestible foods, such as congee and noodles, which are excellent options. Additionally, and spicy foods, such as hot pot and spicy lamb dishes, as well as allergenic foods like beef, lamb, and seafood, should not be given to the child. In daily life, it's also important to help the child develop good habits. Apart from a healthy diet, getting enough sleep, going to bed early and waking up early, and engaging in appropriate exercise are also essential.
