Patient's question:
Boy, 9 years old. In this year, it has been observed that the child is getting fatter and more inclined to eat. Recently, he has become more hungry and prefers to lie down after meals. Please ask: How can obesity and laziness in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Changing a child's obesity starts with getting them to love exercise and not be picky about food. For pediatric obesity, more aerobic exercises like hill climbing and swimming are beneficial. During this period, let the child eat some vegetables that are beneficial for improving obesity, such as winter melon and green pea paste. High-calorie, high-fat foods should be avoided, such as cakes, nuts, and cookies. Strictly control the child's diet to prevent overeating. Exercising more is beneficial for changing a child's obesity. During the treatment for obesity, parents should provide reasonable care based on the child's condition. If the condition is severe, it is essential to go to the hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment.
