Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 7 years old. In this year, I noticed that my child's weight is much heavier than other children, and at the same time, he seems to eat without restraint. He doesn't like to play outdoors often. Please ask: How should obesity and overweight in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
If a child suffers from obesity, parents should first try to change his symptoms by increasing his exercise and controlling his diet. Swimming and hill climbing exercises are very effective for obesity symptoms. Vegetables rich in fiber, such as cucumber and tomatoes, should be eaten more often. Children should not eat high-calorie foods like cakes and macadamia nuts. Moreover, if a child tends to lie down after eating, parents must help them correct this bad habit.During the treatment of pediatric obesity, if the symptoms are severe, parents should take the child to a reputable hospital for targeted treatment and avoid.
