Question

A few days ago, a young child suddenly developed a high fever, which subsided after several days, followed by the appearance of many small red spots. The doctor diagnosed it as infantile measles. The rash has mostly faded, but the child’s appetite is poor. Parents are considering improving the child’s diet and are wondering whether it is suitable to feed the child fish at this time?

Answer

During the period of infant measles, it is not recommended to feed children fish. Even though the rash has mostly faded, it has not completely disappeared yet, and eating fish at this time may worsen the child’s symptoms. It is suggested to wait until the child’s rash has completely cleared before introducing fish into their diet. During the measles period, it is encouraged to have the child consume more vegetables and fruits, which are rich in vitamins, to help boost their immunity. Wishing your little one a healthy growth.
