Question
What are the dietary tips for children with sore throat and tonsillitis?
Answer
If tonsillitis is detected, it should be treated promptly. Daily diet should include plenty of vegetables and fruits, choosing light and non-irritating foods. These foods are rich in nutrition and help boost immunity. It is recommended to choose fruits that are neutral in nature and rich in vitamins, such as kumquats and kiwis. The diet should be easy to digest and swallow, with staple foods mainly consisting of porridge and soft noodles. Increase water intake and reduce or avoid eating foods that may trigger symptoms, such as mutton and dog meat. Parents should help children cultivate good eating habits, maintain hygiene and health, and avoid picky eating or fussy eating.
