Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 5 years old. At first, he said that even drinking water with his throat felt painful. He noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when speaking, and at the same time, he had a slight fever and no energy. Please ask: what dietary precautions should be taken if the child has tonsillitis and difficulty swallowing?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis, diet is also a very important aspect. It is recommended that mothers can give their children more vegetables and fruits. Vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamins, which help boost the immune system. However, when choosing fruits, it is important to avoid those that are too cold or cooling in nature. Opt for fruits that are neutral in nature, such as apples or kiwis. It is also advisable to choose easily digestible foods, such as porridge or well-cooked noodles, which are suitable for children during treatment. At the same time, avoid giving children "trigger foods" such as seafood or dog meat, as these can be harmful to the condition. Additionally, it is important to help children overcome picky eating and poor appetite habits to ensure comprehensive nutrient absorption.
