Question
My son is 14 years old and has been coughing recently. Can a child with a cough eat pizza?
Answer
It is advisable to avoid eating foods like pizza, as the ingredients are rich and may irritate cough symptoms. The meat, vegetables, carbohydrates, and salt in pizza may stimulate the throat and cause coughing. In addition to reducing pizza consumption, it is important to maintain a regular lifestyle, keep warm, ventilate frequently, drink plenty of hot water, and maintain a good mood, which can help in the recovery of the illness.
