Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 9 months old. At first, her throat felt a bit sore, and she noticed that her cough seemed to be getting worse. Now, she has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: What should a child with tonsillitis and low-grade fever eat during treatment?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. These foods are not only rich in vitamins and trace elements, which can help boost immunity, but they are also relatively light in flavor. For example, the peels of kumquats are rich in vitamin C, which has excellent anti-inflammatory effects. It is also important to choose easily digestible foods for children, such as porridge, well-cooked noodles, and noodle wrappers. It is recommended to drink plenty of water. Additionally, they should eat less or avoid foods that are considered "heating" or "irritating," such as mutton and dog meat. Finally, it is important to help children develop good eating habits, avoiding pickiness and fussy eating, so that they can get balanced nutrition and reduce the incidence of tonsillitis.
