Patient's question:
My cousin has encephalitis and is currently in recovery. What kind of food should she eat to help her recover better? What foods are beneficial for her body to fully recover? I vaguely remember that when she first had the illness, it was similar to a cold with a fever. Later, she suddenly lost consciousness and was only discovered to have encephalitis after being taken to the hospital. What should she eat now?Doctor's answer:
Multiple occurrences of meningitis are relatively easier to deal with, and the possibility of sequelae may arise. Therefore, it is necessary to have timely and early examinations and treatments after becoming ill. If there are multiple occurrences of viral infections, antiviral treatments should be administered. If sequelae occur multiple times, rehabilitation therapy should be conducted promptly. Avoid drinking beer and eating spicy foods like chili peppers to prevent exacerbating clinical symptoms.
