Question

Dear parents, my daughter is 8 years old and she feels a sore throat while speaking, accompanied by a slight cough and low fever. Could this be pediatric tonsillitis? What dietary avoidance should be considered at this time?

Answer

Tonsillitis is a common disease. During treatment, it is advisable to provide a diet rich in fruits and vegetables such as pears, watermelons, tangerines, pomegranates, green leafy vegetables, and tomatoes, while avoiding spicy foods like seafood and dog meat. It is also important to develop good lifestyle habits such as healthy eating, regular sleep schedules, and moderate exercise.
