Patient's question:
Boy, already 2 years old. This year, I feel that the child is getting fatter and fatter. At the same time, he can eat several bowls of food in one meal. He likes to lie down after finishing his meal. Please ask: How should pediatric obesity and a lack of vegetables be treated for the best effect?Doctor's answer:
If a child suffers from obesity, parents need to control their child's diet and increase their physical activity. They can start by having the child engage in aerobic exercises, such as jogging, hill climbing, or swimming. During this period, the child should eat vegetables that are beneficial for improving obesity, such as winter melon or green bean curd. Do not let the child eat high-calorie, high-fat foods, such as hamburgers, French fries, or cookies. Moreover, if the child tends to lie down after eating, parents must help them correct this bad habit. During obesity treatment, parents should provide reasonable treatment based on the child's condition. If the condition is severe, it is essential to go to the hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment.
