Patient's question:
My son is 5 years old. In recent weeks, I've noticed that he seems to be getting fatter and eating more uncontrollably. He also doesn't like to play outdoors as much. I'm asking: How can I effectively treat pediatric obesity and a lack of exercise?Doctor's answer:
If a child suffers from obesity, parents should first change their symptoms through exercise and control. Arrange swimming, jogging, and other exercises within the child's tolerance. Give the child more foods like apples, kiwis, and carrots, and avoid fried chicken, cakes, and other high-fat foods. Help the child correct the habit of being inactive after meals or overeating. During the treatment of pediatric obesity, if the child's obesity symptoms are severe, it is important to seek medical treatment promptly and not blindly trust certain medications.
