Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 8 months old, just started, a little sore in the throat, found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and also, the high fever hasn't subsided yet. Please ask: what should be noted in diet if the child's tonsillitis is very uncomfortable.Doctor's answer:
For the disease of tonsillitis in children, it is recommended to start with daily diet for regulation. Children can be encouraged to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, as they are rich in nutritional elements that can help boost their immunity, thus aiding in the healing of tonsils. Examples of good choices include pears, apples, kumquats, and kiwis. For staple foods, it is advisable to choose softer and finer options, such as porridge or noodles, to avoid difficulties in swallowing or worsening constipation. Additionally, it is important to drink plenty of plain water, but foods that may trigger allergic reactions, such as seafood or dog meat, should be avoided. At the same time, it is also necessary to help children correct their picky eating and poor appetite habits to ensure comprehensive nutrient absorption.
