Question
My child is a 3-year-old male. He experiences pain and difficulty in swallowing and has a persistent high fever. What dietary precautions should be taken during the treatment of tonsillitis?
Answer
When children have tonsillitis, there are several dietary precautions to consider. Firstly, focus on light and easy-to-digest foods. Consume more vegetables and fruits such as tangerines and kiwis, which have the characteristics of clearing heat, detoxifying, and being rich in vitamins, helping to boost immunity. At the same time, avoid spicy and irritating foods, as well as potential allergens. Diet plays a crucial role in the treatment of tonsillitis, so please be cautious with your child’s food choices.
