Patient's question:
Boy, 9 years old, in primary school. At first, he had a slightly sore throat, noticed it, and felt like swallowing was a bit difficult. At the same time, it seemed like a low fever that wouldn't go away. Please ask: What are the dietary restrictions for children with tonsillitis and crying?Doctor's answer:
It is essential to promptly treat tonsillitis in children. Additionally, their daily diet should include more vegetables and fruits, as they are rich in vitamins, which help boost the immune system. Options like pears, kiwis, and honeysuckle are recommended, as they also have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. It is important to choose foods that are easy to swallow and digest, such as congee. During this period, avoid giving children foods that are considered "heating" or allergenic, such as beef, lamb, poultry, eggs, and seafood. Of course, spicy and pungent foods like hot pot and spicy noodles should also be avoided. Parents should also help their children develop good eating habits, ensuring cleanliness and health, and avoiding picky or biased eating habits.
