Answer

It is crucial to treat tonsillitis promptly in children. Daily diet should include plenty of vegetables and fruits, as they are rich in vitamins that help boost immunity. For example, pears, apples, tangerines, and kiwis are good choices. It is recommended to choose easily digestible foods; cooking porridge or softening noodles are suitable during the treatment period.
