Patient's question:
Boy, who is already 9 years old, initially said he had a sore throat. He noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. At the same time, he had been slightly feverish for a while. Please ask: What should be noted in diet and nutrition for children with tonsillitis who often cry?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis, it is important to arrange a reasonable diet for the child. First, the child should be encouraged to eat more vegetables and fruits. In addition to being light and non-irritating, these foods are also rich in nutrients, which helps in resisting the disease. However, when choosing fruits, it is important to avoid those that are too cold. Opt for neutral-natured options, such as apples or kiwis. It is also important to choose easily digestible foods, such as porridge, well-cooked noodles, or noodle wrappers. At the same time, it is best to avoid foods that may exacerbate symptoms, such as beef, lamb, dog meat, and seafood. Parents should also help their children develop good eating habits, ensuring cleanliness and health, and avoiding pickiness or partiality in food choices.
