Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 4 years old. At first, he said he had a sore throat, and it was noticed that he also had mild coughing. Additionally, he had a slight fever and was lacking energy. Please ask: What dietary precautions should be taken for a child with tonsillitis and sore throat?Doctor's answer:
It is very important to help children recover from tonsillitis and resume eating as soon as possible. First, they should eat more fresh vegetables and fruits. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins and trace elements, and they are relatively light, so they are very helpful for treating the illness. You can choose from pears, kiwis, and honeysuckle, which also have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. In daily diet, it is also important to focus on easy-to-digest and easy-to-swallow foods, so it is recommended to eat porridge and noodle-based foods. The noodles must be cooked to be very soft. While following a light diet, it is also necessary to eat fewer "trigger foods," such as poultry eggs, donkey meat, and beef or lamb. Diet is also very important for treating tonsillitis, so pay close attention.
