Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 7 years old. At first, she said her throat hurts, and she noticed it accompanied by mild coughing. Additionally, she has a low fever. Please ask: What should infants and toddlers eat during the treatment for tonsillitis with low fever?Doctor's answer:
It is essential to promptly treat your child for tonsillitis upon discovery. Additionally, in daily diet, it is advisable to consume more vegetables and fruits, as they are rich in vitamins, which can help boost immunity, alleviate symptoms, and provide benefits such as promoting digestion and phlegm resolution, as well as moisturizing the lungs. Fruits like apples and kiwis, for example, are particularly helpful for tonsillitis. In terms of dietary choices, it is best to opt for easily digestible foods, such as congee and noodles, which are excellent options. While maintaining a light diet, it is also important to limit the intake of "trigger foods," such as poultry, eggs, donkey meat, beef, and lamb. Parents should also help their children develop good eating habits, ensuring cleanliness and health, avoiding pickiness and partiality in food preferences.
