Patient's question:
Boy, he's already 5 years old. Recently, I've noticed that my child's weight is much higher than other children's, and it seems like he eats in a very uncontrollable way. He likes to lie down after meals. I'm asking: How should we diagnose and treat child obesity who doesn't like vegetables?Doctor's answer:
To help children change the symptoms of obesity, it's important to arrange reasonable exercise and diet for them. For pediatric obesity, aerobic exercises like climbing hills and swimming are suitable. During this period, children should be encouraged to eat more foods such as cucumbers, tomatoes, and kiwis. Foods high in calories like biscuits, macadamia nuts, and small cakes should be avoided. Strictly control the child's diet and avoid overeating. Regular exercise is beneficial for improving obesity in children. During the treatment of obesity, parents should provide reasonable treatment based on the child's condition. If the condition is severe, it's essential to go to the hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment.
