Question
Dear Baby, just 3 months old, just started to say that it’s painful to swallow, noticed that when talking, the voice is a bit hoarse, and now the fever has not subsided. Please ask: How should children with tonsillitis have a reasonable diet?
Answer
Tonsillitis is one of the more common diseases that require timely treatment. To help children resist the disease, you can choose some light and non-irritating vegetables and fruits to give them, such as pears, kiwis, and tangerines, which are rich in nutrients and have a cooling and detoxifying effect. In terms of diet, it is advisable to choose foods that are easy to digest, such as congee and noodles. At the same time, avoid giving children foods that may exacerbate the condition, such as seafood and dog meat, as these foods are detrimental to the illness. Finally, parents should help children develop good habits of regular work and rest and moderate exercise to enhance immunity and reduce the incidence of diseases.
