Question
What feeding precautions should be taken when a child has scarlet fever?
Answer
For children with tonsillitis, it is recommended to start with daily diet adjustments. Encourage the child to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits to supplement vitamins and trace elements, enhance immunity, and promote recovery. When choosing fruits, avoid overly cold varieties and opt for neutral fruits such as apples and kiwis. Additionally, choose easily digestible foods like thin porridge or well-cooked noodles. Apart from light meals, reduce the intake of foods that may trigger inflammation, such as poultry eggs, donkey meat, and beef and mutton. At the same time, help the child correct picky eating habits to ensure comprehensive nutrient absorption.
