Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 8 months old, just starting, a little sore throat, noticed that her voice is a bit hoarse when she talks, and she has had a slight fever all along. Please ask: What should the child avoid eating when they have tonsillitis and a sore throat?Doctor's answer:
For tonsillitis in children, it is recommended to start with dietary adjustments. Encourage the child to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, as many fruits have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, and are rich in vitamins, which can help boost immunity and resist diseases. However, when choosing fruits, avoid those that are too cold or cooling in nature. Opt for those that are neutral in nature, such as apples or kiwis. Daily diet should also focus on easy digestion and swallowing, so it is advisable to consume porridge and noodle dishes. The noodles must be cooked to be very soft. While maintaining a light diet, it is also important to eat fewer "trigger foods," such as poultry eggs, donkey meat, beef, and lamb. Tonsillitis in children can lead to complications, which are very harmful to their health. Therefore, parents must help their children receive proper treatment.
