Patient's question:
My little girl, she is 7 years old. At first, she said that even drinking water felt painful in her throat, and I noticed that her cough seemed quite severe as well, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: What foods should children with tonsillitis avoid when they constantly cry?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis in children, it is recommended to follow a light diet. You can give the child more vegetables and fruits. The reason for encouraging the child to eat more vegetables and fruits is primarily to supplement vitamins and trace elements, which helps boost immunity and facilitate a faster recovery. Options such as pears, kiwis, and honey oranges are recommended, as they also have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. In terms of food choices, it is best to opt for easily digestible options, such as congee and noodle dishes, which are both good choices. However, it is also important to avoid foods and certain trigger foods during this period, as these are not recommended for children. In addition to maintaining a proper diet, it is also important to avoid picky eating and imbalanced diet habits to prevent nutritional deficiencies and weakened immunity, which could lead to recurrence.
