Overweight Problem

Asked for Female, 8 years

My 3 years old niece has become much overweight. She is 27kg now. She doesn't eat anything except half or sometimes a full egg in the morning and drinks milk. she doesn't eat roti, naan paratha or any food. She spends the whole day without eating anything just drinks a glass of milk per day and she has become obese. Why is it so? Is there any easy solution for her?

Dear Patient,

I'm so sorry to hear that. I strongly recommend to take her to a medical specialist. She may be having a hormonal problem causing increased weight with low appetite. There might be other unusual symptoms too hence its best to consult a specialist at the earliest.

For further consultation, you can choose from our list of best Medical Specialists in Lahore and seek in-person advice.
