Question
How should pediatric obesity be treated if the child doesn’t like to exercise?
Answer
To address a child’s obesity, it’s essential to encourage them to enjoy physical activities and avoid picky eating. For children with obesity, engaging in more aerobic exercises like climbing hills or swimming can be beneficial. Encourage them to consume more high-fiber foods such as spinach and carrots. Avoid feeding them high-fat foods like fried chicken and cakes, and don’t let them lie down immediately after eating. If the above methods do not alleviate your child’s obesity symptoms during treatment, it’s important to promptly visit a hospital to determine the cause and prevent the condition from worsening.
