Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 7 months old, just started, said his throat hurts, found that cough seems to be more serious, and now he has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: what should be paid attention to regarding tonsillitis, crying, and diet for the child?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. This is mainly because vegetables and fruits are not only light but also rich in various vitamins and trace elements needed by the human body, which can obviously help children resist the disease. For example, pears, apples, kumquats, and kiwis are all good choices. For staple foods, it is best to choose softer and finer options, such as porridge or noodles, to avoid affecting swallowing or worsening constipation and the condition. Additionally, it is important to drink plenty of plain water, but foods that may exacerbate the condition, such as seafood or dog meat, should be avoided. Finally, it is also necessary to help children develop good eating habits.
