Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 2 years old. At first, his throat felt a bit sore, and he noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. Meanwhile, it seemed like his low-grade fever just wouldn't go away. Please ask: what dietary restrictions should young children with tonsillitis avoid when they constantly cry?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis, diet is also a very important aspect. It is recommended that mothers allow their children to eat more vegetables and fruits. In addition to being light and non-irritating, these foods are rich in nutrients, which helps to resist the disease. For example, the peels of jujubes are rich in vitamin C, which has a good anti-inflammatory effect. In terms of food choices, it is best to choose easily digestible options, such as porridge and noodles. It is also recommended to drink plenty of water. Additionally, it is best to eat less or avoid foods that are considered "heating" (fā wù), such as mutton and dog meat. For the treatment of tonsillitis, in addition to following the doctor's advice, parents should also help their children develop good dietary and lifestyle habits, which can aid in early recovery.
