Patient's question:
Male baby, already 6 years old. Recently, it was found that my child has a lot of meat on his body and seems to eat excessively. He doesn't like to play outdoors as usual. Please ask: How should pediatric obesity with a preference for vegetables be treated?Doctor's answer:
If a child suffers from obesity, parents should control their child's diet and increase their physical activity. Plan swimming, jogging, and other exercises within the child's capacity, and include foods like carrots and spinach, which are helpful in combating obesity. Never let the child eat high-calorie foods such as cakes, chips, or cola. In daily life, parents should address the child's resistance to exercise and picky eating habits. Remind parents that during treatment, if the child's condition worsens, they must take the child to the hospital to diagnose the issue and receive targeted treatment.
