Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 6 months old, just starting, saying it hurts to swallow things, found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and has been a bit feverish all along. Please ask: What should be noted in diet for infants and young children with tonsillitis discomfort?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis, diet is also a very important aspect. It is recommended that mothers can give their children more vegetables and fruits. The reason for encouraging children to eat more vegetables and fruits is mainly to supplement vitamins and trace elements, help improve immunity, and recover as soon as possible. Options include pears, watermelon, kumquats, and pomegranates. For vegetables, green leafy greens and tomatoes are good choices. You can also choose some easily digestible foods for your child, such as thin porridge or well-cooked noodles. Foods like beef, lamb, poultry eggs, and seafood, which are considered "heating" foods, should not be given to children during this period. Of course, spicy and irritating foods like hot pot and spicy noodles should also be avoided. Children with tonsillitis may experience complications, which can be very harmful to their health. Therefore, parents must help their children receive proper treatment.
