Patient's question:
A 10-year-old child has tonsillitis, with a very swollen throat, and is too afraid to speak. What should be done?Treatment history and effectiveness: The child was examined carefully at the hospital once, and the doctor said it was nothing serious, just a few bottles of intravenous drips.
The kind of help needed: Hello, what fruits are good for a 10-year-old child with tonsillitis?
Doctor's answer:
During the acute phase, children should follow a light diet, consuming foods that are high in moisture and easy to digest, such as rice porridge with salt and fruit juice, sugarcane water, water chestnut powder and mung bean soup, etc. In the chronic phase, children should eat fresh vegetables, fruits, beans, and moisturizing foods, such as green vegetables, tomatoes, carrots, soybeans, tofu, soy milk, pears, rock sugar, honey, and lily bulb soup, etc. When a throat abnormal sensation is detected, golden pears can be eaten, which are compared to other more acidic fruits. The peels of golden pears are quite sweet and rich in nutrients, containing vitamin C and calcium, and have a thorough effect in eliminating tonsillitis. The fruits themselves contain vitamins A, B1, B2, C, and calcium, etc.
