Patient's question:
My little girl, she's 1 year old this year. This year, I noticed that my child is getting fatter and fatter. Also, she can eat several bowls of rice at one meal. Even when I ask her to exercise, she doesn't want to. Please ask: How should I treat a child who is obese and doesn't like to exercise?Doctor's answer:
When a child's body becomes obese, parents should create a set of exercise plans and healthy diets for them. Parents should supervise the child to engage in aerobic exercises such as jogging and swimming. They should also give the child more fruits like apples, kiwis, and carrots. High-calorie, high-fat foods such as cakes, nuts, and cookies should be prohibited. Additionally, children should not be allowed to go to sleep immediately after eating or lie on the sofa while snacking. During the treatment for pediatric obesity, if parents notice that the child's condition is severe, they should promptly go to the hospital to determine the cause and receive targeted treatment.
