Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 7 months old. At first, when talking, he felt a sore throat. He found that his voice was a bit hoarse when speaking. At the same time, he had a slight fever and no energy. Please ask: What dietary restrictions should be followed for infants and toddlers with tonsillitis who cry a lot?Doctor's answer:
If a child suffers from tonsillitis, in addition to prompt treatment, diet should also be given attention. First, they can eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins and trace elements, and they are relatively light, so they are very helpful for treating the disease. Options include pears, kiwis, and honeysuckle, which also have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. In terms of diet, it is recommended to choose foods that are soft and easy to digest, such as well-cooked noodles and porridge, which are excellent choices. Foods like beef, lamb, poultry eggs, and seafood, which are considered "heating" foods, should be avoided during this period. Of course, this also includes spicy and irritating foods like hot pot and spicy noodles. In daily life, it is also important to help children develop good habits. In addition to a healthy diet, they should also maintain a regular sleep schedule (going to bed early and waking up early) and engage in appropriate exercise.
