Question
Hello doctor,
May I ask what is the diet for people with mesenteric lymphadenitis? What kind of meat and vegetables can you eat? Can you eat sweets and bread? I was hospitalized with abdominal pain and was hospitalized for 1 week of antibiotic treatment and then went home but was only told not to eat fatty and spicy food.

Hello,
With the question “How is the diet for people with mesenteric lymphadenitis? , the doctor answered as follows:
Lymphadenopathy is a condition in which the lymph nodes, which are tissues that help the body fight disease, become inflamed. Mesenteric lymphadenitis is an inflammation of the lymph nodes in the mesentery that attach the intestine to the abdominal wall. Mesenteric lymphadenitis is usually caused by an intestinal infection. The cause can be viral or bacterial.
You should eat foods that are easy to digest, drink a lot of water, can choose some liquid food, toast, bananas, crackers, boiled vegetables, boiled potatoes and chicken, avoid junk food a lot spicy, hot. If you feel nauseous, stop the food. It is better to avoid milk and dairy products for a few days when you are suffering from mesenteric lymphadenitis to give your stomach a rest as these products can cause stomach upset, alcohol, caffeine should be avoided. and nicotine, grease.
