Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 8 years old, just starting. She says it hurts when she swallows, and she noticed her voice is a bit hoarse when she speaks. Additionally, she has had a slight fever for a while. Please ask: how should the child with tonsil inflammation and swallowing difficulty have a reasonable diet?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis, diet is also a very important aspect. It is recommended that moms can give their children more vegetables and fruits, as many fruits have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, and are rich in vitamins, which can help improve immunity and resist diseases. However, when choosing fruits, it is important to avoid those that are too cold. Opt for some neutral-natured fruits, such as apples or kiwis. In terms of dietary choices, it is best to choose easily digestible options, such as congee or noodles, which are both good choices. At the same time, it is important to try to avoid giving children foods that may aggravate symptoms, such as beef, lamb, dog meat, and seafood, as these may worsen the condition. Finally, it is also necessary to help children develop good eating habits.
