Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 9 years old. At first, he said that even drinking water felt painful in his throat. He also noticed that his cough seemed to be more severe, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: What dietary restrictions should be followed for tonsillitis with low fever in infants and young children?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis in children, the daily diet should primarily be light. You can eat more vegetables and fruits, as many fruits have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, and are rich in vitamins, which can help boost immunity and resist diseases. However, when choosing fruits, it's important to avoid those that are too cold or cooling in nature. You can opt for those that are neutral in nature, such as apples or kiwis. For daily meals, it should be light, easy to digest, and easy to swallow, such as congee or noodles, which are excellent choices. Additionally, and spicy foods, such as spicy hot pot or hot pot, as well as allergenic foods, like beef, lamb, and seafood, should not be given to children. Diet is also very important for the treatment of tonsillitis, so pay close attention.
