Patient's question:
My little girl is 9 years old. Recently, I noticed that she has a lot of body fat and eats more food than other children. She doesn't like to play outside. What should I do to treat her obesity and laziness?Doctor's answer:
When a child's body is overweight, parents should develop a set of exercise plans and healthy diets for their child. For pediatric obesity, more aerobic exercises such as climbing and swimming can be done. Additionally, consume more vegetables like tomatoes, cucumbers, etc. Children should not eat high-calorie foods like cakes, macadamia nuts, and other unhealthy habits should also be helped to be corrected, such as being inactive after meals and picky eating. During the treatment for pediatric obesity, if the child's condition is severe, parents should promptly take them to the hospital for treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
