Question
My daughter, who is 8 years old, is experiencing a sore throat, cough, and fever. What kind of food should she eat during her tonsillitis?
Answer
During the treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, it is recommended to give children a variety of fruits and vegetables, such as pears, watermelons, tangerines, pomegranates, green leafy vegetables, and tomatoes, which are rich in vitamins and trace elements and help boost immunity. At the same time, opt for easily digestible and light foods like congee and noodles, and avoid eating poultry eggs, donkey meat, beef, and mutton to facilitate the recovery from tonsillitis.
