Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 6 years old. At first, he said he had a sore throat. He noticed that it was accompanied by mild coughing, and it seemed like a low fever that never went away. Please ask: How should children with tonsillitis have a reasonable diet when they feel very uncomfortable?Doctor's answer:
If a child has tonsillitis, the diet should first be kept light. Vegetables and fruits can be the main components. In addition to being light and non-irritating, these foods are also rich in nutrients, which helps in resisting the disease. For example, pears are cool in nature and have the effects of reducing fever, soothing the throat, expelling phlegm, and relieving pain. They can alleviate the symptoms of acute tonsillitis, such as throat discomfort. Daily diet should also be easy to digest and swallow, so it is recommended to consume porridge and noodle dishes. The noodles must be cooked to be soft and smooth. At the same time, parents should also pay attention not to let the child eat spicy or irritating foods. In daily life, it is also important to help the child develop good habits. In addition to a healthy diet, they should also go to bed early, wake up early, and engage in appropriate exercise.
