Question
Dear Baby, she is currently 1 year old. Initially, she mentioned a sore throat, accompanied by a slight cough and a mild fever. What should I pay attention to in her diet when she has tonsillitis and keeps crying?
Answer
For children with tonsillitis, it is recommended to start with dietary adjustments. Encourage your child to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, which are not only rich in vitamins and trace elements to boost immunity but are also relatively light. Options include pears, kiwis, and tangerines, which also have a cooling and detoxifying effect. Additionally, choose easily digestible foods such as slightly thinner porridge or well-cooked noodles. Avoid giving your child foods like beef, mutton, poultry eggs, and seafood at this stage. Of course, this also includes spicy dishes like hotpot and spicy steambuns. Finally, parents should help children develop good living habits, maintain regular routines, engage in moderate exercise, and enhance immunity to greatly reduce the incidence of the disease.
