Patient's question:
Boy, already 4 years old, at first, said his throat hurts, noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and it seems like a low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: What can children with tonsillitis and sore throat eat more?Doctor's answer:
While treating children's tonsillitis, dietary care should also be given sufficient attention. Generally, it is recommended to give children more fruits and vegetables, as they are rich in vitamins, which can help boost immunity and alleviate symptoms. However, when choosing fruits, it is important to avoid those that are too cold or cooling in nature. Opt for those that are neutral in properties, such as apples or kiwis. In daily meals, it is best to focus on light, easy-to-digest, and easy-to-swallow foods, such as congee or noodles, which are excellent choices. Additionally, it is important to minimize the child's intake of foods that may aggravate symptoms, such as beef, lamb, dog meat, and seafood. At the same time, it is also necessary to help the child overcome picky eating and poor appetite habits to ensure comprehensive nutrient absorption.
