Children often suffer from tonsillitis leading to fever. How can we prevent this? Please provide professional answers to this question.

Answer

Hello: This situation is not severe and does not require excessive worry. White tongue coating may be caused by formula milk, as infants’ digestive systems are not fully mature and may have difficulty fully absorbing certain components in the formula milk. If the child is bottle-fed, check if there is a problem with the formula and ensure adequate hydration; if it’s due to breastfeeding, the mother’s diet during lactation may also affect the baby if she consumes too much spicy or hot food. Therefore, breastfeeding mothers should pay attention to whether their daily diet contains spicy or hot foods.
