Patient's question:
Child is 8 years old, very fat, we are worried it is obesity. Want to know what are the symptoms of childhood obesity?Doctor's answer:
It is necessary to check the current status of children in the endocrinology department to determine if there is adrenal cortex hyperplasia. If it is not a pathological change, this condition can be controlled through life regulation. If the condition requires appropriate symptomatic treatment, dietary intake should be properly controlled. To promote the breakdown of body fat, three meals should be taken at fixed times, dinner should be appropriately reduced, overeating should be avoided, greasy foods should be minimized, and at least one hour of exercise per day should be guaranteed. For example, activities like brisk walking and jogging need to be maintained for a long time.
