Patient's question:
My son is 7 years old. At first, he had a slightly sore throat, and he noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when he spoke. He also had a low fever. Could you please advise on the appropriate diet for a child with uncomfortable tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis, diet is also a very important aspect. It is recommended that moms can give their children more vegetables and fruits. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins and trace elements, and they are relatively light in flavor, so they are very helpful for the treatment of the disease. For example, the peels of kumquats are rich in vitamin C, which has a good anti-inflammatory effect. You can also choose some easily digestible foods for your child, such as thin porridge or well-cooked noodles. Additionally, it is important to drink plenty of plain water. However, some foods that may exacerbate the condition, such as seafood and dog meat, should be avoided. Finally, it is also important to help children develop good eating habits.
