Patient's question:
Before, I took her to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. Various tests were conducted, and everything was fine. She was prescribed several herbal decoctions, but they had no effect.Previous treatment and outcomes: The traditional Chinese medicine hospital diagnosed her with enuresis.
Desired help: What kind of food would be beneficial for her? For example, I used to give her wild turtle, but I’ve heard that she’s too young to eat overly nourishing foods like turtle, as it could lead to early puberty. I’m very conflicted and don’t know what to do. I hope the doctor can provide an answer.
Doctor's answer:
General enuresis is typically diagnosed only after the child reaches the age of 5, but excessive urination should first be ruled out by excluding local urinary system abnormalities and diabetes. Treatment suggestions:1. The central nervous system of the urinary system in preschool children is still developing.
2. First, go to the hospital to rule out those issues, and then proceed with special training for urination.
3. Bladder compression training: When the child has urine during the day, have them wait for 5–10 minutes first, gradually extending the waiting time to expand the bladder capacity.
