How to deal with an 8-month-old child urinating every 5 to 8 minutes on average?

Patient's question:

4-month-old baby urinates every 5 to 8 minutes on average; previously, the intervals were quite long. After catching a cold once, the frequency of urination increased. What could be the reason? Is it normal? Thank you. 500 milliliters of milk and 180 milliliters of plain water are given daily.

Doctor's answer:

In this case, it proves that the frequent urination is caused by a urinary tract infection. I hope you don't use diapers for the baby, but use breathable cotton cloth to make diapers. Moreover, use warm water to wash the baby's buttocks every night, and you must use a dedicated basin and dedicated towels. Give the baby more water, and frequent urination can help wash away bacteria from the urethra. The above is the advice for the question "A 7-month-old baby urinates every 5 to 8 minutes on average, which is one side before," and I hope it helps you. Wish you health!
