Patient's question:
Female baby, only 7 months old. At first, her throat felt a bit sore. She then noticed that her cough was quite severe, and it seemed like her low fever never subsided. Please ask: If a child has tonsillitis and fever, what can they eat more of?Doctor's answer:
If a child has tonsillitis, the diet should first be kept light. It is advisable to focus on vegetables and fruits, as they are rich in vitamins, which can help improve immunity and alleviate symptoms. For example, pears, apples, kumquats, and kiwis are all good choices. For staple foods, it is better to choose softer and finer options, such as porridge or noodles, to avoid difficulties in swallowing or worsening constipation. At the same time, parents should also pay attention not to let the child eat spicy or greasy foods. Additionally, it is important to help the child overcome picky eating and poor appetite habits to ensure comprehensive nutrient absorption.
