Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 5 years old. At first, she said it hurts when she swallows things, and it was noticed that her cough also seems quite severe. Additionally, she now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: What should be noted in diet if the child's tonsillitis is very uncomfortable?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis, it is necessary to arrange a reasonable diet for the child. First, the child should be encouraged to eat more vegetables and fruits. Vegetables and fruits are relatively rich in nutrients, which can effectively help improve the child's immunity. When it comes to fruits, it is recommended to choose pears, apples, etc. For vegetables, options like green vegetables, cabbage, and tomatoes are all good choices. You can choose based on the child's preferences. In terms of dietary choices, it is best to opt for easily digestible foods, such as congee and noodles, which are both excellent options. Additionally, spicy and irritating foods, such as hot pot and spicy noodles, as well as allergenic foods like beef, lamb, and seafood, should be avoided. Children with tonsillitis may experience complications, which can be very harmful to their health. Therefore, parents must ensure that the child receives proper treatment.
