Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned one month old. At first, he had a slightly sore throat, noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, and also had a low fever and no energy. Please ask: What dietary precautions should be taken for a child with tonsillitis and low fever?Doctor's answer:
Children with tonsillitis are advised to be taken to the doctor for timely treatment by their mothers. In terms of diet, vegetables and fruits are relatively light and are a good choice during the treatment period. The reason for encouraging children to eat more vegetables and fruits is mainly to supplement vitamins and trace elements, which helps boost immunity and aid in faster recovery. Examples include pears, apples, kumquats, and kiwis, all of which are excellent choices. Daily meals should also be easy to digest and swallow, so it is recommended to focus on foods like porridge and noodles. The noodles should be cooked to be very soft. Additionally, it is important to drink plenty of plain water. However, foods that may exacerbate the condition, such as seafood and dog meat, should be avoided. Parents should also help their children develop good eating habits, ensuring cleanliness and health, avoiding pickiness and partiality in their diet.
