Welcome to Healthcare Magic
Tonsillitis is an infection of tonsils which can cause difficulty swallowing and also pain on swallowing. The patient needs proper antibiotic treatment and/or surgical management. Wheat bran if prepared in porridge will be alright as long as it is not hot or irritant to the mouth because he will have difficulty swallowing. He can have cool, soft, bland diet which will help in symptoms relief.
