Patient's question:
Little girl, currently 9 years old. At first, she said it hurt when she swallowed things. It was discovered that her voice was a bit hoarse when she spoke, and it seemed like her low fever never subsided. Please ask: What dietary restrictions should there be for children with uncomfortable tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis, it's important to arrange a reasonable diet for the child. First, the child should eat more vegetables and fruits. These foods are not only rich in vitamins and trace elements, which can help boost immunity, but they are also relatively light in flavor. When it comes to fruits, we generally recommend choosing those that are neutral in nature and rich in vitamins, such as honeysuckle and kiwi. For main meals, it's best to opt for soft and fine-textured options like congee or noodles to avoid difficulty swallowing or worsening constipation. It's also recommended to drink plenty of water. Additionally, the child should eat less or avoid foods that are considered "heating" or irritating, such as mutton and dog meat. Finally, it's important to help the child develop good eating habits.
