How to deal with bedwetting in children? Can acupuncture help?

Patient's question:

Slept during a nap and urinated. Went to the children's hospital for a thorough examination, and they said it was spina bifida. Previous treatment history and effectiveness: None. What kind of help is needed: Want to ask if acupuncture is possible, besides what other methods.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, your child should have spina bifida. In general cases, treatment is not necessary, but medical education should be implemented to completely eliminate the patient's anxiety and negative psychological state. For those with mild symptoms, it is recommended to emphasize waist muscle (or abdominal muscle) exercises to enhance internal balance in the waist. It is advisable for you to go to a regular hospital for diagnosis. The appropriate treatment method will be determined based on the condition. In the past 20 years, there has been a significant accumulation of clinical diagnostic experience, advocating for an active surgical approach. Those who have already experienced incontinence of urine and feces or lower limb collapse should also strive for surgery.
