Patient's question:
Baby girl, only 2 months old. At first, she had a slightly sore throat, and then she started coughing more severely. Now, she has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: What dietary precautions should be taken for infants and toddlers with tonsillitis and high fever?Doctor's answer:
It is very important to help children recover from tonsillitis and resume eating as soon as possible. First, they should eat more fresh vegetables and fruits. In addition to being light and non-irritating, these foods are also rich in nutrients, which helps boost the immune system to fight off illness. For fruits, pears and apples are recommended, while for vegetables, greens, cabbage, and tomatoes are all good choices. You can choose based on your child's preferences. In daily meals, it should focus on being light, easy to digest, and easy to swallow, such as congee and noodles, which are excellent options. At the same time, avoid giving them "trigger foods" like seafood or dog meat, as these can be harmful to the condition. Diet is also very important for the treatment of tonsillitis, so pay close attention.
