Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 2 years old. In recent weeks, I have noticed that her body is becoming increasingly plump, and she seems to eat very unconstrainedly. When I ask her to exercise, she doesn't want to. Please ask: How to treat child obesity who loves meat.Doctor's answer:
If a child suffers from obesity, parents need to control their child's diet and increase their physical activity. For pediatric obesity, it is advisable to engage in more aerobic exercises such as climbing and swimming. Additionally, children should be encouraged to eat more high-fiber foods like spinach and carrots. Fried chicken and cakes, which are high in fat, should be avoided. Parents should address the child's reluctance to exercise and selective eating habits in daily life. During the treatment of obesity in children, if the aforementioned methods do not alleviate the symptoms, it is important to seek medical attention promptly to investigate the underlying causes and prevent the condition from worsening.
