Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 4 years old, just started, saying her throat hurts, found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and now she has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: what dietary precautions should be taken when the child's tonsils are inflamed and she cries?Doctor's answer:
If a child suffers from tonsillitis, it is very necessary to seek medical attention immediately. At the same time, parents should also pay attention to giving their child more vegetables and fruits. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins and trace elements, and they are relatively light in flavor, so they are very helpful in treating the disease. When it comes to fruits, we generally recommend choosing those that are neutral in nature and rich in vitamins, such as kumquats or kiwis. In terms of daily diet, it should be light, easy to digest, and easy to swallow, such as congee or noodles, which are all excellent choices. Additionally, spicy and irritating foods, such as spicy hot pot or hot pot, as well as "trigger foods" like beef, lamb, or seafood, should not be given to the child. While maintaining a proper diet, it is also important to avoid picky eating and partiality to ensure that the child does not lack nutrients, which could weaken their immune system and lead to recurrence.
