Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 3 months old. At first, he said his throat was sore, and it was noticed that his cough seemed quite severe as well, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: What should be paid attention to regarding crying and diet for infants and young children with tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
If a child has tonsillitis, the diet should first be kept light. Vegetables and fruits should be the main components. In addition to being light and non-irritating, these foods are also rich in nutrients, which helps in resisting the disease. For fruits, we generally recommend choosing those that are neutral in nature and rich in vitamins, such as kumquats or kiwis. It is also advisable to choose easily digestible foods, such as porridge or well-cooked noodles, which are suitable for children during their recovery. Additionally, it is important to drink plenty of plain water and avoid foods that may exacerbate the condition, such as beef, mutton, or dog meat. Seafood should also be consumed in moderation or avoided. Finally, parents should help their children develop good habits, maintain a regular schedule, engage in appropriate exercise, and boost their immunity, which can significantly reduce the incidence of illness.
