Question
My son is 5 years old. Initially, he said his throat was sore, and I noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when he spoke. He’s also had a slight fever. What are the dietary restrictions for a child with tonsillitis without appetite?
Answer
It is crucial to treat tonsillitis promptly in children. In addition, their daily diet should include more vegetables and fruits, and choose soft and fine staple foods to avoid affecting swallowing or exacerbating constipation and the condition. While maintaining a light diet, also avoid spicy foods. In daily life, it’s important to help children develop good habits, including healthy eating, early to bed and early to rise, and moderate exercise.
