Question
My 9-year-old son has recently been experiencing a sore throat, slight cough, and a high fever. What should a child with tonsillitis eat during treatment?
Answer
Children’s tonsils are prone to infection, so it is recommended to have a light diet during treatment. Opt for nutritious foods rich in vegetables and fruits, such as pears, apples, tangerines, kiwis, etc., and avoid spicy and irritant foods to ensure a balanced diet and reduce the risk of recurrence.
