Patient's question:
My little girl is 1 year old. At first, she said her throat hurts. I noticed that her cough is quite severe, and she also has a low fever. Could you please tell me what to pay attention to regarding crying and diet for children with tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
Children's tonsils are prone to inflammation, and if they occur, they should be examined and treated as early as possible. For diet, it is recommended to focus on lighter foods such as vegetables and fruits. These foods are not only rich in vitamins and trace elements, which can help boost immunity, but they are also relatively light. Examples include pears, apples, kumquats, and kiwis, all of which are 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. At the same time, parents should also pay attention not to let their children eat or greasy food. Additionally, parents should help their children correct their picky eating and poor appetite habits to ensure comprehensive nutrient absorption.
