Question

My son is 3 years old and has recently been experiencing symptoms such as sore throat, severe coughing, fever, and lack of energy. He may have pediatric tonsillitis. What should I do regarding his diet during the treatment period?

Answer

Pediatric tonsillitis is a common disease, and during the treatment period, it is recommended to feed children vegetables and fruits, choosing light and easy-to-digest foods such as tangerines, kiwis, and other vitamin-rich fruits, as well as congee and noodles that are easy to digest. Avoid giving irritant food and spicy foods, and do not be picky or have a preference for certain foods to ensure that the child receives enough nutrition and improves their body’s resistance, reducing the likelihood of recurrence.
