Question
What dietary precautions should be taken when a child has tonsillitis?
Answer
During the treatment of tonsillitis in children, the daily diet should primarily be light and easy to digest, with an emphasis on vegetables and fruits. These foods are not only light and non-irritating but also nutritionally rich, aiding in resistance to illness. Foods such as pears, kiwis, and tangerines can be chosen as they have a cooling and detoxifying effect. The diet should be easy to digest, such as congee and noodles.

Lastly, parents should help children develop good living habits, maintain regular sleep schedules, engage in moderate exercise, enhance immunity, and thereby reduce the incidence of disease.
