Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 1 year old. In recent weeks, I've noticed that my child is getting fatter and can eat several bowls of food at one meal. He's also very lazy. Please ask: How can obesity and laziness in children be effectively treated.Doctor's answer:
Childhood obesity can be addressed by first setting an exercise routine and modifying diet. You can start by having the child engage in aerobic exercises such as jogging, climbing, or swimming. Additionally, encourage the child to consume more high-fiber foods like spinach and carrots. The child should avoid high-calorie foods such as cakes and macadamia nuts. It's essential to break the habit of disliking exercise, as this can easily lead to fat accumulation. During the treatment for childhood obesity, if the child's obesity symptoms are severe, it's crucial to seek medical attention promptly. Do not blindly trust certain medications.
