If a child suffers from tonsillitis, many medicines cannot be taken. Therefore, it is recommended that parents choose dietary treatment. By eating the right things, not only can nutrition be supplemented, but tonsillitis can also be treated without any side effects.

1. Diet therapy for tonsillitis in children

During the period when your baby's tonsils are inflamed, you should pay attention to eating a light, easily digestible diet and eating small meals frequently. You can eat high-protein foods such as milk, soy products, eggs, foods rich in vitamin C such as fruits (bananas, apples, pears, watermelons, pomegranates, figs), and water chestnuts, vegetable soup, red date soup, etc. Generally, you should avoid greasy, sticky, and spicy foods. You should also drink more water to promote the excretion of toxins produced by pathogens as soon as possible to facilitate the body's recovery. The use of dietary therapy is also beneficial to the baby's physical recovery:

(1) Boil 1 fresh radish, 10 green fruits and a little rock sugar in water and drink as tea.

(2) 6 grams of sour plums, 25 grams of green fruits (olives), and appropriate amount of white sugar. Soak sour plums and green fruits in a casserole for half a day, then boil them and add sugar when taking.

(3) 4-6 pieces of Sterculia lychnophora and appropriate amount of crystal sugar. Wash the Sterculia lychnophora and put it in a bowl, add appropriate amount of rock sugar for seasoning. Pour in boiling water, cover and simmer for half an hour.

(4) Lily and banana stew: 15 grams of lily, 2 peeled bananas, appropriate amount of rock sugar, add water and stew together, then drink.

Choking and difficulty in relieving oneself, enlarged laryngeal nucleus, or yellow-white pus spots. In the afternoon, the cheeks are red, the palms and soles are hot, and there is weakness in speaking.

2. What to do if children have tonsillitis

If a baby with tonsillitis has a fever, the first thing to do is to reduce the baby's fever by using physical cooling methods. When the baby's temperature exceeds 38.5℃, take the baby to the hospital in time and take reasonable and effective treatment. If you fail to go to the hospital in time to take effective treatment, and only control the symptoms, it is easy to relapse. Repeated attacks will become chronic tonsillitis, which is more difficult to treat. Severe babies may also need surgery. Therefore, when a baby suffers from tonsillitis, parents must take the baby to the hospital for treatment in time. Strengthening the care of your baby in daily life can enhance your baby's resistance, reduce the chance of your baby suffering from tonsillitis, and even if your baby is sick, it can help your baby recover faster. To enhance your baby's resistance, you should let your baby develop good eating habits, ensure that the diet provided to your baby is nutritionally balanced, take your baby to outdoor activities more often, add or remove clothes for your baby in time when the weather changes, and try to avoid taking your baby to crowded public places to prevent your baby from repeatedly spreading diseases and causing low immunity.

3. Nursing for children with tonsillitis

(1) Babies with tonsillitis should stay in bed and drink plenty of water to eliminate toxins produced in the body after bacterial infection.

(2) You can gargle with light salt water several times a day to keep your mouth clean and odorless.

(3) During the baby's treatment, the baby's body temperature and pulse changes should be closely observed. If the high fever persists, the doctor should be notified in time and effective treatment should be taken.

(4) When your baby is sick, let him eat some light, easily digestible food, and eat more fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins. Do not let your child drink cold drinks or sugary carbonated drinks, as these can easily induce inflammation. Do not let your child smell oil smoke, which can irritate the baby.

(5) Try not to take your baby to crowded places. During illness, the baby’s immunity is low and it is easy for him to be infected with other diseases.

(6) If the weather changes, add or remove clothes for your baby in time and make sure to keep your baby warm.
