Patient's question:
Baby girl, currently 1 year old. At first, she had a slight sore throat, and then noticed that her voice was a bit hoarse when she talked. Moreover, she has been a bit feverish.: How should the child with tonsil inflammation and difficulty swallowing eat a reasonable diet?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis, it is important to arrange the child's diet reasonably. First of all, the child can be encouraged to eat more vegetables and fruits. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins and trace elements, and they are relatively light, so they are very helpful for the treatment of the disease. For example, fruits like pears and apples have the effects of clearing heat and anti-inflammatory, so they can be eaten more. It is advisable to choose foods that are easy to swallow and digest, such as congee, which are excellent choices. Foods like beef, lamb, poultry, eggs, and seafood, which are considered to be "trigger foods," should not be given to the child during this period. This also includes spicy and irritating foods like hot pot and spicy noodle soup. Parents should also help their children develop good eating habits, ensuring cleanliness and health, and avoiding picky and biased eating habits.
