Question
My son is just over 9 months old and has recently started experiencing difficulty swallowing, accompanied by a low fever, which is suspected to be tonsillitis. What dietary precautions should I take?
Answer
Tonsillitis is a common disease that requires timely treatment. During the treatment process, the child’s diet is also very important. It is recommended to have a light diet while eating more vegetables and fruits to boost the child’s immunity. When choosing fruits, opt for those with a neutral taste and rich in vitamins, such as tangerines and kiwis. Additionally, choose foods that are easy to swallow and digest, such as thin porridge. Also, avoid consuming excessive amounts of irritant foods like poultry eggs, donkey meat, and beef and mutton.
