Patient's question:
My male child is 1 year old this year. This year, I noticed that his body is getting fatter and fatter, and he seems to eat especially unrestrainedly. He is also very lazy. Please ask: How can childhood obesity and picky eating be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
The child is experiencing obesity. Parents should alleviate his symptoms through exercise and a healthy diet. Arrange swimming, jogging, and other exercises for the child within his tolerance range, and encourage him to eat more high-fiber foods such as spinach, carrots, etc. Foods high in calories like cookies, macadamia nuts, and small cakes should be avoided. Additionally, if the child likes to lie down immediately after eating, parents must help him correct this unhealthy behavior. During the treatment for pediatric obesity, if the symptoms are severe, it is essential to take the child to a regular hospital for targeted treatment rather than.
