Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 9 years old, just started, saying her throat hurts, found that coughing seems to be more severe, and now she has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: What dietary restrictions should there be for children with uncomfortable tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis, it is important to arrange a proper diet for the child. First, the child should be encouraged to eat more vegetables and fruits, as they are rich in vitamins, which help boost the immune system. When choosing fruits, it is generally recommended to select those that are neutral in nature and high in vitamins, such as honeysuckle and kiwifruit. It is also important to choose easily digestible foods for the child, such as thin porridge, well-cooked noodles, and noodle skins. Foods that are considered "heating" or irritating, such as beef, lamb, poultry, eggs, and seafood, should be avoided during this period. This also includes spicy and foods like hot pot and spicy street food. Lastly, parents should help their children develop good habits, maintain a regular schedule, engage in appropriate exercise, and enhance their immunity. This can significantly reduce the occurrence of the disease.
