Question
A 9-year-old boy has a sore throat, hoarse voice, and low fever. What should be noted when the child has tonsillitis?
Answer
While treating a child’s tonsillitis, dietary considerations are also of great importance. It is recommended to give the child more fruits and vegetables, which are rich in vitamins and trace elements to help boost their immunity. Choose light and easily digestible foods, such as the vitamin C in tangerine peel, which has a good anti-inflammatory effect. Avoid eating poultry eggs, donkey meat, and mutton and beef, which are more likely to cause inflammation. Parents should help their children develop good living habits, including regular sleep schedules and moderate exercise, to enhance immunity and reduce the risk of disease.
