Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 6 years old. This year, I have observed that my child's weight is much higher than other children. At the same time, she can eat several bowls of rice at one meal and likes to lie down after eating. Please ask: How can obesity and lack of exercise in children be effectively treated?Doctor's answer:
Changing a child's obesity starts with getting them to love exercise and not be picky eaters. For pediatric obesity, more aerobic exercises like climbing and swimming can be done. During this period, let the child eat some vegetables that are beneficial for improving obesity, such as winter melon and green pea pudding. Don’t give the child fried chicken, cakes, or other high-fat foods. Moreover, help the child correct bad habits, such as not wanting to move after eating and being picky about food. During the treatment for pediatric obesity, if parents find that the child's condition is severe, they should go to the hospital promptly to determine the cause and receive targeted treatment.
