Patient's question:
My male baby is now 1 year old. This year, I noticed that he has a lot of flesh on his body. At the same time, he has been eating more and more recently. I call him to exercise, but he doesn't want to. I would like to ask: How can I effectively treat childhood obesity and a lack of exercise?Doctor's answer:
When a child's body becomes obese, parents should create an exercise plan and a healthy diet for them. Aerobic exercises like swimming or jogging can be arranged for the child, and they should eat more fruits rich in vitamin C, such as apples and kiwis. Fried chicken and cakes with high fat content should not be given to the child. Parents should correct the child's unwillingness to exercise and picky eating habits in daily life. It is advised that if the child's condition worsens during the treatment, parents should take them to the hospital to identify the underlying issue and receive targeted treatment.
