Patient's question:
Boy, 11 years old, in primary school. At first, he said he had pain when swallowing, noticed that his cough was quite severe, and he also had a low fever and no energy. Please ask: What dietary precautions should be taken for infants and young children with tonsillitis and low fever?Doctor's answer:
It is very important to help children recover from tonsillitis and resume a normal diet as soon as possible. First, they should eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, as these are relatively rich in nutrients and can greatly help boost their immunity. Options like pears, kiwis, and honeysuckle are good choices, as they also have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. It is also important to choose easily digestible foods for the child, such as porridge, well-cooked noodles, and flatbread. Additionally, spicy and irritating foods like hot pot and spicy noodles, as well as "trigger foods" like beef, lamb, and seafood, should be avoided. Tonsillitis in children can lead to complications, which are very harmful to their health. Therefore, parents must ensure that their children receive proper treatment.
