Question
My son is 7 years old. At first, he felt a sore throat when he spoke, accompanied by a slight cough. Additionally, he has a bit of a fever and seems listless. What should I pay attention to in the diet for infants and young children with angina pharyngis?
Answer
Diet plays a crucial role in the rapid recovery of children with angina pharyngis. It is recommended to consume fresh vegetables and fruits, mainly in light and non-irritating dishes. These foods are rich in nutrition and can help resist diseases. Recommendations include fruits like pears and apples, as well as vegetables like green leafy vegetables, cabbage, and tomatoes. Preferences of the child should be considered. Choose foods that are easy to swallow and digest, such as congee, and drink plenty of water. Avoid eating seafood, dog meat, and other foods that may trigger diseases. Help your child establish good living habits, including regular work and rest (overtime work), moderate exercise, to enhance immunity, and reduce the incidence of diseases.
