Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 7 years old, just started, saying her throat hurts, found, accompanied by mild cough, also, now has high fever that won't go down, please ask: What are the dietary principles for children with tonsillitis and low fever?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that parents take their children to seek medical treatment promptly if they have tonsillitis. In terms of diet, vegetables and fruits are relatively light and are a good choice during the treatment period. In addition to being light and non-irritating, these foods are also rich in nutrients, which can help boost the immune system and fight off illness. Fruits like pears and apples, for example, have the effects of clearing heat and reducing inflammation, so they can be consumed more frequently. It is also important to choose easily digestible foods for children, such as porridge, well-cooked noodles, and noodle wrappers. Additionally, spicy and irritating foods like hot pot and spicy noodles, as well as "trigger foods" such as beef, lamb, and seafood, should be avoided. Lastly, parents should help their children develop good habits, maintain a regular schedule, engage in appropriate exercise, and improve their immunity, which can significantly reduce the incidence of illness.
