Question
A 5-year-old boy has a sore throat, cough, and low fever. What can he eat during the treatment period?
Answer
When a child has tonsillitis, it is important to maintain a light diet, focusing on fruits and vegetables to enhance immunity. It is recommended to eat more fruits rich in vitamins, such as tangerines and kiwis, and choose porridge that is cooked thin and noodles that are cooked soft. Drink plenty of plain water and avoid seafood, dog meat, and other foods. Additionally, regular work and rest (rest and work schedule) and moderate exercise can help improve immunity and reduce the incidence of diseases.
