Question

My son is 7 years old. Initially, he said his throat was sore, and I noticed that his coughing seemed more severe. Additionally, it seems like his low-grade fever hasn’t gone away. What can infants and young children eat more when they are uncomfortable with tonsillitis?

Answer

Diet is also a very important aspect during the treatment of tonsillitis. It is recommended that mothers give their children more vegetables and fruits, which are relatively rich in nutrients and can help improve their immunity. For example, pears, apples, tangerines, and kiwis are good choices. It is advisable to choose foods that are easier to swallow and digest, such as congee. Foods like beef, mutton, poultry eggs, and seafood should not be given to children at this stage, of course, including spicy and irritant food like hotpot. Diet is also very important for the treatment of tonsillitis, so please pay attention.
