Question

When a child feels unwell but doesn’t know why, what are the signs of child obesity?

Answer

Children with pediatric obesity are often found in infancy, preschool, and adolescence. These children usually have a strong appetite, large bowel movements, and a dislike for physical activity. Generally, children with obesity have lower height and weight than their peers, and due to obesity, sexual organs may be hidden in fatty tissue, particularly more pronounced in boys. Parents of children with obesity should pay attention to adjusting their child’s diet, eating properly, and ensuring adequate physical activity. During treatment, patients need to regulate their diet, maintain a regular lifestyle, actively participate in sports training, adjust their physical and mental health, and keep themselves clean to avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened resistance.
