Question

What dietary precautions should be taken when a child has tonsillitis and always has a fever?

Answer

When a child has tonsillitis, diet is equally important in addition to treatment. It is recommended to consume plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins and trace elements, choosing light and easy-to-digest foods. Recommended fruits include pears and apples, while vegetables like green leafy vegetables, cabbage, and tomatoes are suggested. For staple foods, soups and noodles should be cooked soft and well-cooked. Avoid spicy foods, cultivate good living habits, and ensure adequate rest and exercise.
