Patient's question:
A 5-year-old child still wets the bed! They sleep too soundly at night and don't get up to use the bathroom, often wetting the bed! Adults are also tired and set a time when they are not allowed to use the bathroom! Is this considered a disease? Should I go to the hospital to see?Doctor's answer:
Enuresis refers to the condition where, after the age of five, a child frequently wets the bed and therefore needs to be examined promptly. It is recommended to visit a children's hospital for further and thorough examination, including routine and detailed checks of the urinary system, such as blood and urine tests, MRI of the kidneys, ureters, and bladder, and lumbar-sacral X-rays when necessary. This is the advice for the question "A 5-year-old still wets the bed! Sleeping too soundly at night," and it is hoped that it will be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
