Patient's question:
Baby girl, currently 1 year old, just starting, says her throat hurts, found, accompanied by mild cough, and has had a slight fever for a while. Please ask: Does the child have tonsil inflammation? What are the dietary precautions for poor appetite?Doctor's answer:
If a child suffers from tonsillitis, in addition to prompt treatment, dietary attention should also be given. Firstly, the child can consume more fresh fruits and vegetables. The reason for encouraging the child to eat more fruits and vegetables is mainly to supplement vitamins and trace elements, which helps to boost immunity and facilitate a quicker recovery. For example, the rind of kumquats is rich in vitamin C, which has excellent anti-inflammatory effects. It is also important to choose easily digestible foods for the child, such as congee, soft-cooked noodles, and flatbread. Additionally, the child should drink plenty of plain water. However, certain "trigger foods" like seafood and dog meat should be avoided. At the same time, it is also necessary to help the child overcome picky eating and poor appetite habits to ensure comprehensive nutrient absorption.
