Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 3 years old. At first, he felt pain in his throat even when drinking water. Later, I noticed his voice was a bit hoarse, and he also had a low fever. Could you please advise on what to eat during the treatment for pediatric tonsillitis and throat pain?Doctor's answer:
Children with tonsillitis are advised to take them to the doctor for treatment in a timely manner. In terms of diet, vegetables and fruits are relatively light and are a good choice during the treatment period. These foods are not only rich in vitamins and trace elements, which can help boost immunity, but they are also relatively light. For fruits, we generally recommend choosing those that are neutral in nature and rich in vitamins, such as kumquats or kiwis. It is important to choose foods that are easy to swallow and digest, such as congee, which are excellent options. At the same time, parents should also pay attention not to let their children eat and spicy foods. In addition to following the doctor's advice, parents should also help their children develop good eating and living habits, which can help them recover sooner.
