Patient's question:
Girl baby, just 9 years old. In this year, I found that the child seems to be getting fatter and eating more without restraint. When asked to exercise, she is unwilling. Please ask: How should pediatric obesity with a poor appetite for vegetables be treated?Doctor's answer:
If you discover that your child has pediatric obesity, you should first arrange appropriate exercise and a healthy diet for them. You can start by gradually increasing the exercise intensity for your child, such as jogging, by adding half a lap at a time during their workouts. Additionally, foods like carrots and spinach are helpful in addressing obesity. It is essential to strictly prohibit your child from consuming high-calorie foods like cakes and chestnuts, and to closely monitor their diet to avoid overeating. Regular exercise is beneficial in addressing childhood obesity. During the treatment period, parents should tailor the treatment to their child's specific situation. If the condition is severe, it is crucial to visit a hospital to determine the underlying cause and receive targeted treatment.
