Patient's question:
My little girl is 5 years old. At first, she felt a sore throat when speaking, and noticed that her voice was a bit hoarse when talking. Also, it seems like she has had a low-grade fever that hasn't gone away. Please ask: What are the dietary principles for infant and toddler tonsillitis, which is very uncomfortable?Doctor's answer:
While treating children's tonsillitis, dietary care should also be given sufficient attention. It is generally recommended to give children more fruits and vegetables, mainly because vegetables and fruits are not only light but also rich in various vitamins and trace elements needed by the human body, which can obviously help children resist diseases. However, when choosing fruits, it is important to avoid those that are too cold or cooling in nature. You can opt for some neutral ones, such as apples or kiwis. In daily diet, it is also important to focus on easy-to-digest and swallow foods, so it is advisable to prioritize porridge and noodle dishes. The noodles must be cooked to be very soft. Additionally, foods like spicy hot pot and hot pot should not be given to children, nor should "trigger foods" like beef, lamb, and seafood. At the same time, it is also necessary to help children correct their picky eating and poor appetite habits to ensure comprehensive nutrient absorption.
