Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 7 years old. Recently, she feels that my child has a lot of meat on her body and eats more food than other children. She doesn't want to exercise when asked. Please ask: How to treat child obesity who doesn't like to exercise.Doctor's answer:
Once a child is diagnosed with obesity, parents should first address the situation through exercise and diet. Parents can encourage their child to engage in activities that promote weight loss, such as jogging or swimming, and increase their intake of vitamin C-rich fruits like apples or kiwis. Foods high in calories, such as biscuits, macadamia nuts, or small cakes, should be avoided. Additionally, if a child prefers to lie down after eating, parents must help them correct this unhealthy behavior. During the treatment for pediatric obesity, if parents notice a severe worsening of the child's condition, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment.
