Patient's question:

Boy, just turned 6 months old, just starting, a little sore throat, noticed, coughing is quite severe, and, now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: What are the dietary restrictions for children with tonsillitis and fever?

Doctor's answer:

If a child suffers from tonsillitis, it is very necessary to seek medical attention immediately. At the same time, parents should also pay attention to giving their child more vegetables and fruits. The reason for encouraging children to eat more vegetables and fruits is mainly to supplement vitamins and trace elements, which helps to boost immunity and aid in quick recovery. For example, the peels of kumquats are rich in vitamin C, which has a good anti-inflammatory effect. In daily diet, it should be light, easy to digest, and easy to swallow, such as congee and noodles, which are both excellent choices. Foods like beef, lamb, poultry eggs, and seafood, which are considered "heating" or "irritating" foods, should be avoided during this period. Of course, this also includes spicy and irritating foods like hot pot and spicy noodles. In daily life, it is also important to help children develop good habits. In addition to a healthy diet, they should also maintain a regular sleep schedule, go to bed early and wake up early, and engage in appropriate exercise.
