Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 3 years old. At first, she felt a sore throat when speaking and noticed that her cough seemed to be more severe as well. Additionally, it seems like her low-grade fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: What foods can children with tonsillitis and fever eat more of?Doctor's answer:
While treating pediatric tonsillitis, dietary management should also be given sufficient attention. Generally, it is recommended to give children more fruits and vegetables, as they are relatively rich in nutrients and can effectively boost their immunity. However, when choosing fruits, it is important to avoid those that are too cold in nature. Opt for neutral-natured options, such as apples or kiwis. Additionally, it is advisable to provide easily digestible foods, such as thin porridge or well-cooked noodles. It is also important to minimize the consumption of "trigger foods," such as beef, lamb, dog meat, and seafood, as they may exacerbate symptoms. Parents should also help their children develop good eating habits, ensuring cleanliness and health while avoiding pickiness and partiality in food choices.
