Question
Dear Parent, my son is just over 6 months old. Initially, he said he had a sore throat and found that swallowing was a bit difficult. He also has a low fever. What dietary restrictions should be followed for pediatric tonsillitis without appetite?
Answer
While treating pediatric tonsillitis, it is also crucial to pay close attention to the diet. It is generally recommended to give children more fruits and vegetables, such as pears, watermelons, tangerines, and pomegranates, as well as green leafy vegetables and tomatoes. These foods can help supplement vitamins and trace elements, enhance immunity, and promote recovery. When choosing food, it is best to opt for easily digestible foods like congee and noodles. At the same time, it is important to avoid spicy and stimulating foods as well as certain triggering foods. Tonsillitis in children may lead to complications that are very harmful to their health, so parents must help their children receive proper treatment.
