How old can a child be before they no longer need a diaper?

Patient's question:

What kinds of diseases can pediatric surgery treat, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine? How old does a child need to be to be toilet trained?

Doctor's answer:

For a baby's good bowel habits, parents should give timely encouragement to boost his confidence. At the same time, they should frequently remind and reinforce these habits. Parents can also adopt methods such as emptying the baby's bowels before sleep, stopping the use of diapers at night, and waking the baby during sleep to help him establish nighttime bowel control habits.
Children have weaker immune systems, so they are prone to pediatric general surgery issues. For parents, it's important not to panic and should promptly take their child to a regular hospital for examination and treatment. Additionally, routine check-ups should be conducted for the child, and medication should be administered under the guidance of a doctor.
