Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 2 years old. Recently, I have noticed that my child is getting fatter and eating more, and also becoming particularly lazy. How can I effectively treat pediatric obesity and laziness?Doctor's answer:
Changing a child's obesity starts with making them love exercise and be less picky about food. For pediatric obesity, more aerobic exercises like climbing and swimming are beneficial. Additionally, eat more fruits rich in vitamin C, such as apples and kiwis. Foods high in calories like biscuits, macadamia nuts, and small cakes should not be given to children. Also, avoid letting children sleep or lounging on the sofa after eating snacks. It is important to remind parents that if their child's condition worsens during treatment, they must take them to the hospital to diagnose the condition and then provide targeted treatment.
