Question
My son is 3 years old, and he says his throat hurts, and his voice sounds a bit hoarse. It seems he has a slight fever as well. What should I pay attention to in terms of diet when my child has tonsillitis and a fever?
Answer
In treating a child’s tonsillitis, diet is just as important as medical treatment. It is recommended to prepare fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins for your child, such as pears, apples, green vegetables, cabbage, and tomatoes, to boost their immunity and improve symptoms. At the same time, ensure that their daily diet is easy to digest, such as congee and noodles. Avoid spicy and irritating foods and drinks. Additionally, establishing good dietary and lifestyle habits can help your child recover more quickly.
