Patient's question:
My little girl, who is 3 years old this year, initially said that even drinking water made her throat hurt. She was found to have difficulty swallowing, and at the same time, she now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: what dietary points should be paid attention to for infant tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
It is essential to promptly treat a child's tonsillitis. Additionally, the daily diet should include more vegetables and fruits, as they are relatively rich in nutrients and can effectively help boost the child's immunity. Fruits like pears and apples, for example, have the properties of clearing heat and reducing inflammation and should be consumed more. The daily diet should also be easy to digest and swallow, so it is recommended to prioritize foods like porridge and noodles. The noodles must be cooked soft and smooth. While maintaining a light diet, it is advisable to avoid certain trigger foods, such as poultry eggs, donkey meat, beef, and lamb. In addition to following the doctor's advice for treating tonsillitis, parents should also help their children develop good dietary and lifestyle habits, which can aid in faster recovery.
