Patient's question:
Boys, just 3 years old, recently, it has been observed that my child's weight is much higher than other children's. Also, recently, he has been eating more and more. Even when asked to exercise, he doesn't want to. Please ask: How should I treat a child who is obese and reluctant to exercise.Doctor's answer:
If a child suffers from obesity, parents need to control their child's diet and increase their exercise. Aerobic exercises such as swimming or jogging can be arranged for the child, and they should consume more fruits rich in vitamin C, like apples, kiwis, etc. Frying foods and dry fruits should be prohibited, as they are high in dry calories and fat. It is essential to break the child's habit of disliking exercise, as otherwise, it can lead to fat accumulation. During obesity treatment, parents should provide reasonable treatment based on the child's condition. If the condition is severe, it is necessary to go to the hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment.
