Pediatric pharyngitis is often secondary to acute tonsillitis or acute rhinitis, which is a complication of upper respiratory tract infection. Eating some fresh fruits in moderation during the treatment period for babies with pharyngitis is also beneficial for reducing adverse symptoms. So, what fruits should a three-year-old baby eat for pharyngitis?
1. Pear. Pears are sweet and juicy, and they have the therapeutic effect of moistening the lungs and generating fluids. Especially red pears, autumn pears and snow pear pears have good effects of clearing away heat, removing fire, relieving cough and moistening lung. Babies with pharyngitis can eat some pears in moderation, which can help alleviate discomfort in the throat caused by pharyngitis.
2. Yuzu. Yuzu is particularly rich in vitamins, which can benefit the throat and clear the lungs. Parents can mix honey and grapefruit together to make honey grapefruit tea for babies to drink in moderation, which can alleviate various adverse symptoms such as dry cough without phlegm, dry mouth and tongue, as well as sore throat.
3. Loquat. After ripening, loquat has a very sweet taste and is also rich in nutrients. It belongs to the category of cold fruits, which can dispel phlegm, cough, clear heat, and treat symptoms such as dry throat and thirst. Babies with laryngitis can also eat some loquat in moderation, but it should be noted that loquat kernels must not be consumed as they have certain toxicity.
4. Apples. Apples are a type of fruit with a sweet and mellow taste, and also have a good moisturizing effect on the throat. Therefore, babies with pharyngitis can also eat some apples in moderation during treatment.
