How to treat pediatric enuresis

Patient's question:

How is enuresis treated in children? Which hospitals are effective for consultation?

Doctor's answer:

It should be made clear to the child that enuresis is a temporary functional disorder, helping them build confidence in curing the condition. Encourage them patiently to train their bladder to contract and urinate regularly. Neurogenic enuresis in children has little impact on their appetite and is often overlooked. It is usually discovered unintentionally by parents, and when seeking treatment at primary healthcare facilities, it is frequently misdiagnosed as a urinary tract infection, leading to ineffective antibiotic treatment.
For children who wet the bed, parents should never ridicule, scold, or punish them to avoid increasing the child's mental burden. When the child's enuresis decreases, rewards should be given, such as presenting their favorite prizes, while also providing appropriate treatment to help them completely overcome enuresis.
