Question
How to treat and prevent recurring tonsillitis in children?
Answer
Firstly, attention should be paid to oral hygiene and the development of good living habits. Parents should supervise their children’s brushing of teeth twice a day, as well as rinsing their mouth with water after meals to prevent food residue from remaining in the mouth. Additionally, it is important to have regular meals, drink plenty of water, and consume a variety of vegetables and fruits, avoiding a diet that is too heavy on meat, especially fried chicken and fried fish, as these foods may cause gastrointestinal discomfort in children, which can trigger tonsillitis.
