Question

What are the dietary tips for children with tonsillitis when they have a fever?

Answer

During the treatment of tonsillitis in children, the diet should be light and non-irritating, with an emphasis on eating more vegetables and fruits. In addition to being light and non-irritating, these foods are also rich in nutrients, which help resist the disease. For example, fruits like pears and apples have the effects of clearing heat and inflammation, and can be eaten more. Pay attention to easy-to-digest foods in daily meals, and it is recommended to mainly consume congee and noodles, making sure the noodles are cooked soft. Moreover, avoid giving children spicy and stimulating foods like spicy hotpot and hotpot, as well as foods that may trigger the condition, such as beef, mutton, and seafood. Parents should also help children develop good eating habits, ensuring hygiene and health, and avoiding picky eating and preference for certain foods.
