Why do babies shiver when they urinate

Patient's question:

What kind of diseases can pediatric surgery treat, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine? Why does the baby tremble when urinating?

Doctor's answer:

Shivering usually occurs when urination is almost complete, so I believe it is due to the urethral sphincter contracting and closing the urethra when urination is nearly finished, while there may still be residual urine in the bladder. The bladder continues to contract, creating pressure at the prostate and seminal vesicles, which is somewhat similar to the situation during ejaculation. This stimulation of the sexual nerves is the likely cause.
1. If a child has dry stools and anal fissures, it may cause bleeding. In such cases, the child often cries during bowel movements, and the blood is usually on the surface of the stool.
2. It could be caused by enteritis, such as dysentery. Children with diarrhea may have blood mixed with the stool, and sometimes pus may also be present.
First, check the child's anus for any fissures. It is best to have a stool sample examined.
