Patient's question:
My child recently noticed many abnormal symptoms in her body. She kept coughing, and after the coughing subsided, there was always something stuck in her throat that she couldn't cough up, especially when she was more active and tired. After a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor said it was pediatric tonsillitis. I don't know what to eat for it.What kind of help is needed: What should children with tonsillitis eat?
Doctor's answer:
A child with tonsillitis and phlegm should try taking oral Xianzhuli. Additionally, try sucking on Huasupian lozenges to soothe the throat. It's also important to speak as little as possible, and strictly avoid spicy foods. Make sure to drink plenty of water. Drinking water infused with honeysuckle flowers can be even more effective. If the medication doesn't work well for tonsillitis, as it may not reach the tonsils effectively, it's best to receive intravenous treatment. It's recommended to undergo intravenous anti-inflammatory therapy, as it allows for higher drug concentrations, faster onset, and better results. Or, appropriate and hormone therapy. Since tonsillitis is primarily caused by bacterial infection, the treatment mainly involves antibiotic anti-infection therapy. Penicillin-class antibiotics are generally used for anti-infection. Food treatment is ineffective.
