Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 2 months old. At first, he said his throat hurt even when drinking water, and it was found that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. At the same time, he had a low fever. Please ask: Is it very uncomfortable for children to have tonsillitis during treatment? What should they eat during the treatment period?Doctor's answer:
Children with tonsillitis are advised to seek timely medical treatment. In terms of diet, vegetables and fruits are relatively light and are a good choice during the treatment period. This is because vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamins, which can help boost immunity and alleviate symptoms. Fruits like pears and apples, for example, have properties that clear heat and reduce inflammation, so they can be consumed more frequently. Additionally, it's recommended to choose easily digestible foods for the child, such as thin porridge or well-cooked noodles. At the same time, avoid giving the child "trigger foods," such as seafood or dog meat, as these can be detrimental to the condition. Parents should also help their children develop good eating habits, ensuring cleanliness and health, and avoiding pickiness or partiality in food choices.
