Patient's question:
My daughter is 5 and a half years old. In the past three nights, whenever she goes to bed, she starts urinating right away, a little at a time, and she needs to urinate about five or six times. Once she falls asleep, it stops, and she only urinates again in the morning. During her midday nap, she doesn't seem to need to urinate. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
A disease condition where children over 3 years old urinate involuntarily during deep sleep and only realize it upon waking. The recurrence of this condition is due to the child's underdeveloped intellect and the lack of established normal urination habits, resulting in an inability to independently control urination. Generally, enuresis is often associated with coldness in the stomach and bladder. The above advice addresses the question, "Why does a 5.5-year-old child urinate in bed every night for the past three days?" and is hoped to be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
