Patient's question:
My boy, who is 8 years old this year, has gained a lot of weight. At the same time, his appetite is very large, and he likes to lie down after eating. I would like to ask: How should I treat childhood obesity that doesn't like vegetables?Doctor's answer:
To help your child change the symptoms of obesity, it's important to arrange reasonable exercise and diet for them. For pediatric obesity, more aerobic exercises such as climbing hills and swimming are recommended. Additionally, encourage your child to eat more high-fiber foods like spinach, carrots, and others. Make sure not to let your child consume high-calorie foods such as cakes, chips, and cola. Moreover, help your child break bad habits, such as being inactive after meals and picky eating. During the treatment for obesity, if your child's condition is severe, it's essential to take them to a reputable hospital for treatment.
