Patient's question:
My son is 4 years old. At first, he had a slight sore throat, and then I noticed his voice was a bit hoarse when he spoke. Now, he has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: What dietary restrictions should be avoided for a child with tonsillitis who is crying?Doctor's answer:
While treating children's tonsillitis, diet also requires sufficient attention. Generally, it is recommended to give children more fruits and vegetables, as these foods are not only rich in vitamins and trace elements but can also help boost immunity. They are relatively light and easy to digest. For fruits, pears and apples are good choices, while vegetables like spinach, cabbage, and tomatoes are also excellent. You can choose based on your child's preferences. You can also feed them some easily digestible foods, such as thin porridge or well-cooked noodles. While maintaining a light diet, it is also important to eat fewer trigger foods, such as poultry eggs, donkey meat, beef, and lamb. In daily life, it is also necessary to help children develop good habits. Besides a healthy diet, they should also go to bed early, wake up early, and engage in appropriate exercise.
