Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 4 years old. In recent weeks, I feel that the child seems to be getting fatter and fatter. Additionally, she can eat several bowls of rice in one meal. Even when I ask her to exercise, she doesn't want to. I would like to ask: How can I effectively treat a child who is obese and dislikes vegetables?Doctor's answer:
When a child suffers from obesity, parents can increase the child's physical activity and control their diet to improve the symptoms. Encourage the child to engage in exercises suitable for their age, such as swimming or jogging. During this period, let the child eat more foods like cucumbers, tomatoes, and kiwis. Avoid high-calorie and high-fat foods, such as cakes, nuts, and cookies. Also, do not let the child overeat frequently and encourage them to exercise more. If the child's condition is severe during the treatment for obesity, it is essential to take them to a reputable hospital for treatment.
