Patient's question:
A colleague is in the hospital because of appendicitis, and the rest of us want to go see her. However, visiting a patient is not something you can do empty-handed, so we plan to buy her some fruits. But we don't know which fruits are good for someone with appendicitis?Doctor's answer:
Various fruits contain a relatively rich amount of vitamins and mineral nutrients, which can enhance the patient's immune system and provide certain assistance in the recovery of the condition. During the period of appendicitis, it is advisable to avoid consuming excessively cold fruits. Most other fruits can be consumed appropriately, such as durian, pomelo, fresh jujubes, apples, and kiwano. These fruits are high in vitamin C, which can help reduce the body's immune response.
