Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 3 months old, just starting, feels sore throat when talking, found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and it seems like low-grade fever has not gone away. Please ask: What dietary precautions should be taken for a child with tonsillitis and sore throat?Doctor's answer:
While treating children's tonsillitis, attention should also be paid to their diet. Generally, it is recommended to give children more fruits and vegetables, as they are rich in vitamins and trace elements, and are relatively light in flavor, making them very helpful for treating the illness. For example, fruits like pears and apples have the effects of clearing heat and reducing inflammation, so they can be eaten more. It is also important to choose easily digestible foods for children, such as thin porridge, well-cooked noodles, and noodle skins. At the same time, it is necessary to avoid foods that may exacerbate symptoms, such as beef, lamb, dog meat, and seafood. In daily life, it is also important to help children develop good habits. In addition to a healthy diet, they should also go to bed early, wake up early, and engage in moderate exercise.
