Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 9 years old. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking, and then noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse. Additionally, he has been slightly feverish. Please ask: What should children with tonsillitis not eat when they have no appetite?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis in children, it is recommended to follow a light diet. Encourage the child to eat more vegetables and fruits, as many fruits have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, and are rich in vitamins, which can help boost immunity and resist diseases. Fruits like pears and apples have the effects of clearing heat and reducing inflammation and can be eaten more frequently. Choose foods that are easy to swallow and digest, such as congee, which are excellent choices. At the same time, parents should also pay attention not to let the child eat and sweets. Additionally, it is important to help the child correct bad habits of picky eating and poor appetite to ensure comprehensive nutrient absorption.
