Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 5 years old. At first, he felt pain in his throat even when drinking water, and noticed it accompanied by mild coughing. Additionally, it seems like he hasn't recovered from a low fever. Please ask: What foods can children with tonsillitis and fever eat?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis, it is necessary to arrange a reasonable diet for the child. First, the child should be encouraged to eat more vegetables and fruits. Vegetables and fruits are relatively rich in nutrients, which can effectively help improve the child's immunity. For fruits, it is recommended to choose pears, apples, etc. As for vegetables, green vegetables, cabbage, tomatoes, etc., are all good options. You can choose based on the child's preferences. It is also advisable to choose some easily digestible foods. Cooking porridge or boiling noodles until soft are both suitable for the child during treatment. While maintaining a light diet, it is important to avoid foods that may exacerbate the condition, such as poultry eggs, donkey meat, beef, and lamb. Diet plays a key role in the treatment of tonsillitis, so it is essential to pay attention.
