Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 6 years old, just starting. When talking, she feels a sore throat. She found that swallowing seems a bit difficult. At the same time, she also has a low fever. Please ask: What are the dietary restrictions for a child with tonsillitis and crying?Doctor's answer:
Children's tonsils are very prone to inflammation. If they occur, they should be examined and treated as soon as possible. Regarding diet, it is recommended to focus on lighter foods such as vegetables and fruits. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins and trace elements, and they are relatively light, so they are very helpful in the treatment of the disease. For example, pears, apples, kumquats, and kiwis are all good choices. It is also recommended to choose easily digestible foods. Boiling some porridge or cooking noodles until soft are both suitable for children during treatment. While maintaining a light diet, it is also important to eat fewer trigger foods, such as poultry, eggs, donkey meat, and beef or lamb. Finally, it is also important to help children develop good eating habits, avoiding pickiness and selectiveness, so that they can get balanced nutrition and reduce the incidence of tonsillitis.
