Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 6 years old. At first, she had a slight sore throat, noticed it, and her voice was a bit hoarse when she spoke. At the same time, she had a slight fever and was lacking energy. Please ask: Does the child have tonsillitis, and what can she eat more of when she has no appetite?Doctor's answer:
Tonsillitis is one of the more common diseases and requires timely treatment. While undergoing treatment, it's important to ensure the child consumes vegetables and fruits, as many fruits have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, and are rich in vitamins, which can help boost immunity and fight off illnesses. Examples include pears, apples, kumquats, and kiwis, all of which are great choices. For staple foods, it's best to opt for softer and finer options, such as congee or noodles, to avoid difficulties in swallowing or worsening constipation. However, it's also important to note that spicy and stimulating foods, as well as certain allergenic foods, should be avoided during this period. In addition to following the doctor's advice, parents should also help their children develop good eating and living habits, which can aid in early recovery.
