Question

Dear parents, my daughter is 5 years old and has recently been experiencing sore throat, difficulty swallowing, and fever. What should we pay attention to when our child has tonsillitis and is feverish?

Answer

To promote the recovery of a child with tonsillitis, diet is crucial. It is recommended to supplement with fresh fruits and vegetables to enhance immunity. Choices include pears, watermelons, tangerines, and pomegranates, as well as green leafy vegetables and tomatoes. It is advisable to choose easily digestible foods such as congee and soft noodles, and to avoid consuming seafood, dog meat, and other easily triggering substances. Parents should pay attention to cultivating healthy eating habits in their children and avoid picky eating and dietary preferences.
